Lord Hereford's Knob, Mountain summit in Powys, Wales
Lord Hereford's Knob reaches an elevation of 690 meters and features a distinct cairn marking the peak within the Black Mountains range.
The mountain's English name originated from the 19th-century land ownership patterns when Lord Hereford maintained significant territorial holdings in this Welsh region.
The mountain carries two names, with locals preferring the Welsh designation Twmpa, reflecting the strong presence of traditional Welsh language in the area.
Multiple hiking trails lead to the summit from Gospel Pass, with clear waymarking and established paths suitable for different experience levels.
The mountain serves as a child summit to Waun Fach and maintains classification as both a Hewitt Hill and a Nuttall within British hill categorizations.
