The county town of Hereford is officially the only city, with a stunning cathedral dating back to 1079, and the world famous Chained Library, where all the books are actually chained to the shelves. Primarily at its outset a trading centre for cattle, cider and other goods, Hereford was until recent years the home of the highly trained SAS, or Special Air Service.
Farming is the main source of livelihood in the county, with Hereford cattle producing fine beef and excellent dairy products: Arable farming in Herefordshire produces a large proportion of the country's grain and vegetable recourses, and also exports a large quantity.
