The village is surrounded by beautiful countryside, with many leisure opportunities including walking, cycling and horse riding, particularly along the Icknield Way Trail footpath. Ickleford is home to the Hitchin Lavender Farm, which offers 25 miles of lavender rows that are open to the public throughout the summer, along with a barn café and shop. Local amenities in the village include three popular public houses, a convenience store, a sports and recreation club, St Katharine’s church and a village hall, which is the hub of the community and hosts regular social events. Ideal for families, the village has its own reputable primary school and there is an excellent choice of secondary schools within a five-mile radius. THE PERFECT WORK-LIFE BALANCE Nearby Hitchin is a popular and desirable market town, mentioned in the Sunday Times Top 50 places to live and “offering the perfect work-life balance”. It boasts a charming historic centre, which provides extensive shopping and recreational facilities. In recent years, the town has developed its own exciting and vibrant modern café culture, offering a fantastic range of restaurants, wine bars and cafés, as well as an excellent choice of specialist shops, boutiques, high street stores and a Waitrose supermarket. The thriving weekly outdoor market is held in the main square alongside the River Hiz, overlooked by St Mary’s Church which dominates the pretty town centre. There are two theatres, a museum and throughout the summer the town hosts the well- known Rhythms of the World festival. 4 ICKLEFORD Mews WELL CONNECTED Set in attractive rural surroundings, Ickleford is also extremely well connected. The village is served by regular buses to Hitchin and Bedford, while Hitchin mainline station, just two miles away, offers a fast and frequent rail service to London King’s Cross and St Pancras International in just 27 minutes, and to Cambridge in 35 minutes.

  • The Origins of Ickleford
    The origins of Ickleford Figure 1: Ickleford in the twenty-first century; pale lilac areas were once in Holwell (in Bedfordshire before 1894) and pale blue in Shillington (Bedfordshire); green areas are Archaeological Areas previously used in planning (© Ordnance Survey) Introduction The village of Ickleford lies to the north of Hitchin and sits astride the Icknield Way. The historic parish – formerly part of Pirton – consisted of two separate lobes, joined by a narrow section of Lower Green between Snailswell (previously in Holwell) and the River Hiz (Figure 2). The manor of 1 Ickleford occupied the southern lobe, while the northern was the manor of Ramerick. The ‘tongue’ of Holwell that projected east from the Bedford Road around Snailswell and the detached part around Cadwell were transferred to Ickleford in the later twentieth century; both parts lay in Bedfordshire before 1894. The southern and eastern boundaries of the parish followed the Rivers Oughton and Hiz respectively. Since the incorporation of Cadwell into Ickleford, this remains true only north of Lower Green Farm and south of the Icknield Way. The northern boundary follows an unnamed stream, branches of which rise in Holwell and Stondon. To the west, the Bedford Road (A600) forms its northern line, while it follows hedges, field baulks and minor roads in a zig-zag to the River Oughton. Ickleford became a vicarage in 1215, with two chapels: one lay in Ickleford, the other at Ramerick. Each chapel served a separate manor, both of which were subinfeudations of Pirton, each held for a quarter of a knight’s fee from that manor.

  • North Hertfordshire Open Space Review & Standards 2016
    North Hertfordshire Open Space Review & Standards 2016 PART 1: OPEN SPACE REVIEW 1 1. Introduction 1.1 Access to high quality open spaces and opportunities for sport and recreation can make an important contribution to the health and well-being of communities; and if well designed and maintained they can make areas attractive places to live, work and visit. 1.2 Planning Policy Guidance Note 17 (PPG17): Planning for Open Space, Sport and Recreation (2002) aimed to improve the quantity and quality of open space, by requiring local authorities to undertake an assessment of needs and opportunities in their area, and to develop a series of local standards by which to improve the overall provision of open space. 1.3 In 2009 an assessment was carried out to assess the provision of open space, sport and recreation facilities in North Hertfordshire, based on PPG17 and its Companion Guide (Assessing Needs and Opportunities). This North Hertfordshire Green Space Standards document examined the existing provision based on different types of open space and set out open space standards, differentiating between urban and rural developments. 1.4 The purpose of this 2016 report is to review open space provision in the District since the open space assessment undertaken in 2009. In doing so, it will provide an updated position on the latest provision of open space, sport and recreation facilities in North Hertfordshire. This work is being done in line with the National Planning Policy Framework (NPPF) (2012) and Planning Practice Guidance (PPG) (2014), which have replaced PPG17 and its Companion Guide. 1.5 This 2016 update will ensure that the Local Plan is supported by an up-to-date assessment and will form part of the evidence base.

  • Notes and Memoranda on Some Hertfordshire Churches at the Beginning of This Century. Mr
    29 Notes and Memoranda on some Hertfordshire Churches at the beginning of this Century. BY H. R. WILTON HALL. Mr. Cussans twenty years ago wrote:— "At Essendon Place is preserved a large collection of local sketches, the value of which it would be difficult to over estimate. They were made about the year 1797, by a schoolmaster of Tewin, named Pridmore, and are bound in nine thick volumes. The collection consists of coloured views of nearly all the Gentlemen's Seats in the 30 S. ALBAXS AND HEliTs ARCHITECTURAL AXD ARCHvKOLOGlC AL SOCIETY County; all the Churches, and principal monuments within them, together with objects of antiquarian interest, such as old stained glass, windows, rood screens, fonts, etc. One volume is devoted to the Coats of Arms of Hertfordshire families. These volumes bear witness to the fearful destruction of ancient monuments which has taken place during the last eighty years. Modern restorers have as much to answer for as the popularly abused soldiers of Cromwell, destroyers as they were. It seems incredible that scores of Churches in this County, which now possess as much Archaeological interest as the waiting-room of a railway station, should less than a century ago have been rich in brasses, stained glass, and exquisite carvings in wood and stone : yet such is the case."* In the year 1884, Baron Dimsdale allowed the Rev. Dr. Griffith to have copies taken from the collection, relating to his Parish of Sandridge. It was my good fortune to try my hand at making these copies for Dr. Griffith, and I thus had an opportunity of examining this Collection of Views to which Mr.
