Marstow is a hamlet and civil parish in south eastern Herefordshire, England. Most of the parish is within the Wye Valley Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty.
==History== Marstow at c.1130 was written as "Lann Martin", and in 1291 as "Martinstow". The name derives from the saint's name [Martin], with the Old English 'stōw' "replacing [the] Welsh "Llan in the early form", and producing the "Church or holy place of St Martin".
