The 'below stairs' areas and servants' quarters that are open to the public include a Victorian laundry and Georgian dairy. Berrington has been in the care of the National Trust since 1957 and is, along with its gardens, open to the public. Berrington features Capability Brown's last landscape design. A notable feature is the ha-ha wall, which was subject to extensive renovation in the late 20th century by local craftsmen.

Eaton Hall is a two-storey building in Leominster in Herefordshire, 1 mile to the south-east of the village church. It was historically sited in the parish of Leominster Out. It was recorded in 1934 as being two-storey, with stone and timber-framed walls and slate and tile roofs. It is Grade II listed.It belonged to the Hackluyt family - John Leland states that William Hackluyt built a house in Leominster, though the existing building seems to date to the mid-1300s. It centred on a great hall with a timber-frame roof and cross-wings at both the east and west ends. Most of the hall survives, including a west solar wing in stone. At an unknown date the hall was divided into two storeys and stone-facings placed on the walls. The buttery wing was extended to the north, probably in the early 1400s and the buttery-wing and screens were later rebuilt, probably in the 18th century. An outbuilding still survived in 1934, formed of a barn and a 17th-century cottage converted into stables.

Pinsley Mill, also known as Etnam Street Mill, is a former watermill in Leominster, Herefordshire, England. It was one of Leominster's first mills, situated where the Pinsley Brook left the monastic precinct around Leominster Priory, and was mentioned in a lease of 1675 as a "watercorne" mill.At some time between 1744 and 1748 it was reopened by Daniel Bourn as a cotton mill, one of the Paul-Wyatt cotton mills built to house the roller spinning machinery invented by Lewis Paul and John Wyatt, that first enabled the spinning of cotton "without the aid of human fingers". Bourn's mill operated successfully as a mill until 1754, when it was destroyed by fire.The mill was rebuilt and returned to its original function as a corn mill, remaining in use until the Second World War.The mill was vandalised and set alight several times in 2010 – 2013.

Leominster abbey was an Anglo-Saxon monastery established at Leominster in the county of Hereford, England. The name of the town refers to its minster, a settlement of clergy living a communal life. The monastery, perhaps founded in the seventh century, was originally a male house. After being destroyed by Danes, it was rebuilt as a Benedictine abbey for nuns (see Leominster nunnery). In 1046 the abbess, Eadgifu, was abducted by Sweyn Godwinson. Eadgifu is only abbess known by name. The convent was probably dissolved or suppressed not long after this incident.` In the 12th century Henry I incorporated land at Leominster into the foundation of Reading Abbey. Reading Abbey in turn founded a Benedictine priory in Leominster of which the Priory Church survives at grid reference SO49855927. Whether the priory was built on the site of the original Anglo-Saxon monastery is not clear. However, archaeological evidence of Saxon activity has been uncovered at the priory.The Galba Prayer Books, used at Leominster Abbey during the early 11th century, were probably mostly copied by a female scribe after 1016, whom medieval scholar and historian Katie Ann-Marie Bugyis calls "one of the most prolific contributors to the compilation" and most likely worked at the request of her abbess. This scribe wrote in Old English and Latin. Bugyis speculates that the female scribe, like Edith of Wilton, created the Galba book for her own use, but that her fellow nuns later made their own contributions to it, either in direct collaboration with her or after her death, and that eventually it became a way to train those who used it in their own prayer practices.

Leominster nunnery was an Anglo-Saxon nunnery at Leominster, Herefordshire, England. Founded in the ninth century, the nunnery is known to have been active in the eleventh century.

The Priory Church is an Anglican parish church in Leominster, Herefordshire, England, dedicated to Saint Peter and Saint Paul.

In 1539 the east end of the church was destroyed along with most of the monastic buildings, but the main body of the church was preserved. Quatrefoil piers were inserted between 1872 and 1879 by Sir George Gilbert Scott. The building is a grade I listed building.
