Snodhill castle is a rare pre-Norman castle built around 1050. It is likely this was to guard the fertile Dore Valley and the thriving Saxon villages in the surrounding lands. The castle was built by Norman Superknight William Fitz Osbern, 1st Earl of Hereford during a campaign with an objective to assert Norman control along the Welsh Marches. Snodhill Castles position, strength and size would have meant it was heavily involved in many political disputes and wars along the Welsh Marches.

Dorstone may well be one of the most ancient settlements in Herefordshire. To the north of the village is Arthur's Stone, a chamber tomb originating from between 3700 and 2700 BC, making it Herefordshire's oldest human structure. The village is the site of a former motte-and-bailey castle, now all but gone. It is an excellent area for hillwalking, with various trails that explore the Golden Valley's rolling countryside. The Pandy Inn is a walker-friendly pub that serves great food and offers accommodation.
