Together with its companion part 1 (published in 1886), they cover Grimsworth hundred and were written by William Henry Cooke. I've never been able to locate an online copy of these two volumes.

The 1892 volume is on Family Search, where it is film 908357, beginning at image 190. When I called up the cat entry it showed access as restricted (by the little key icon) but I clicked on it anyhow and was able to view it.https://www.worldcat.org/title/collections-towards-the-history-and-antiquities-of-the-county-of-hereford-in-continuation-of-duncumbs-history-vol-4-hundred-of-grimsworth/oclc/931248121?referer=di&ht=editionThis is the second part of volume 4.
