Hertford has been the county town of Hertfordshire since Saxon times when it was governed by the King’s Reeves. Today the town is seen as an affluent up and coming place. With its pretty Victorian terraced streets, outstanding schools, independent businesses and a thriving café and shopping culture, it is fast becoming a popular destination to live, work and raise a family.
Despite its relatively small population, it offers a thriving marketplace, theatre and an eclectic mix of restaurants, bars and pubs. The Grade I listed Hertford Castle is located in the centre of town and is set in beautiful grounds by the tranquil River Lea. Only the gatehouse remains of the original Norman building, which is now a popular wedding and corporate hire venue.
Hertford also boasts excellent transport credentials with two major rail links into London (Moorgate via Finsbury Park, Highbury and Old St, or Liverpool Street via Tottenham Hale). Competition for properties is fierce and prices are often enlarged as a result, with newcomers from London often increasing demand on static number of properties.
Properties are still however more affordable than other notable Hertfordshire commuter towns such as St Albans. Throw in the excellent standard of the local schools, low crime rates and growing number of local amenities and its not hard to see why Hertford’s popularity continues to blossom.
The standard of education in Hertford is well above the national average. There are many great primary schools in Hertford, including Abel Smith School, which was rated ‘Outstanding’ by Ofsted at its last inspection.
In terms of State secondaries, both Richard Hale School and The Sele School have been judged as ‘Good’ secondaries, while Simon Balle All-Through School which teaches children from primary right through to sixth form is also judge to be a ‘Good’ school.
Private school options include St. Joseph’s in the Park, Duncombe School (a preparatory school in Bengeo) and Haileybury College in Hertford Heath. Co-ed Haileybury College is one of the leading private schools in England with the large majority of the pupils boarders.
