Tips from the Community
Couple of other reasons to have the bridge : To allow parishioners from “English Foy” (east bank, Hole‑in‑the‑Wall) to reach the church in “Welsh Foy” (west bank) without relying on the ferry. Local accounts also note a more down‑to‑earth reason: the pub was on the English side, and a reliable crossing made life easier for both locals and ferry‑boatmen.

According to Harper Bridges - This bridge was commissioned by the congregations of the churches of Sellack Boat and King’s Caple and built in 1895. The towers are of tubular cast iron, with nameplate transoms embossed “Louis Harper AIMCE, Maker, Aberdeen”. The original cables to common anchorages are still in place, as are their hangers. However, at some stage (nobody seems to know when or why) further short cables were clamped to the original, presumably to support areas of wear and avoid cable replacement. This has led to crowding at the saddles. However, the bridge is still used and the local churches continue to hold their ‘Bridge Thanksgiving’ ceremony each year. This area is noted for its flooding but so far the bridge has held since the arched deck remains above the flow, although the approaches are inundated. It lacks the original longitudinal deck boarding but the original camber is well maintained. This bridge is the best illustration of the method of attachment of hangars to main cable employed by John and Louis Harper

Foy and Hole-in-the-Wall are two villages near Ross-on-Wye that are actually split by the River Wye. Foy is on one side and Hole-in-the-Wall is on the other. In times gone by crossing from one part to the other was only possible by ferry or ford but in 1876 a suspension bridge was built and a very pretty one it is too.
