The parish of St Frances of Rome serves the Catholic community of the market town of Ross-on-Wye, in the predominantly rural county of Herefordshire. We are blessed with a beautiful church building and a friendly and active parish community of all ages.

We warmly welcome both new parishioners and visitors from all over the world to our parish.
