HEREFORD'S new Monopoly board has launched today and it means it has been revealed which businesses, charities and landmarks are featured.
Since it was announced in February that Hereford would be getting its very own version of the classic game, speculation has been rife as to which names would replace Old Kent Road and Mayfair – the cheapest and most expensive squares.
