Recordist's notes

Sounds (birdsong, people shouting, dogs barking) generated on the English side of the River Wye, crossing the river and border into Wales, hitting the hill on the Welsh side of the river and bouncing back into England. (Audio Technica BP4025 XY mic into a Sound Devices 633 recorder)
