Baldock is a historic market town in the local government district of North Hertfordshire in the ceremonial county of Hertfordshire, England where the River Ivel rises. It lies 33 miles (53 km) north of London, 15 miles (24 km) southeast of Bedford, and 14 miles (23 km) north northwest of the county town of Hertford. Nearby towns include Royston to the northeast, Letchworth and Hitchin to the southwest and Stevenage to the south.
Paleolithic, Neolithic and Bronze Age settlements show the site of Baldock has been continuously occupied since prehistoric times.
At the beginning of the Iron Age there was a hillfort at Arbury Banks, 5 km to the northeast of Baldock, that dominated the area. In the Late Iron Age (c. 100 BC), the local power base shifted from the hillfort to the vicinity of Baldock. The soil was easily farmed and transportation was more convenient. In the Roman and late Roman eras the community appears to have been both a market town and religious centre. The Roman settlement gradually disappeared. There is no entry for Baldock in the Domesday Book.
The Baldock Festival is a cultural festival which started in 1983 and takes place on the first weekend in May. The festival consists of events throughout the town and the local area, such as museum trips, a barn dance, cheese tasting, brewery tours, clairvoyance evening, cricket match, comedy sketches, family quiz night, mystery tour, open gardens, history talks, and several music events, some of which feature local bands. The festival culminates in the Historic Street Fair held in the High Street, on the second and final weekend where stallholders dress in clothing of the era and help to portray what life was like in the historic town. The Baldock Beer Festival takes place during the first weekend where local and national real ales, real ciders and continental lagers may be sampled.
Thanks to its location, the town was a major staging post between London and the north: many old coaching inns still operate as pubs and hotels, and Baldock has a surprising number of pubs for its size. From the 1770s until 2008 the high street was very wide, a typical feature of medieval market places where more than one row of buildings used to stand. In the case of Baldock, the bottom of the High Street had three such rows, until Butcher's Row was demolished by the Turnpike authorities in the 1770s. In late 2008, a town centre enhancement plan included a narrowing of the road and subsequent widening of paved areas.
Since the 16th century, Baldock has been a centre for malting, subsequently becoming a regional brewing centre with at least three large brewers still operating at the end of the 19th Century, despite a decline in demand for the types of beer produced locally. The 1881 Census records approximately 30 drinking establishments (the town's population was at that time around 1900). Throughout the early 20th century a large number of pubs continued to operate, many of which were sustained by the adjacent and much larger town of Letchworth, which had no alcohol retailers prior to 1958, and had only two pubs and a single hotel bar until the mid-1990s. Its larger population had for many years visited both Baldock and Hitchin for refreshment.

Letchworth, officially Letchworth Garden City, is a town in Hertfordshire, England, It is a former civil parish. The town's name is taken from one of the three villages it surrounded (the other two being Willian and Norton) – all of which featured in the Domesday Book. The land used was purchased by Quakers who had intended to farm the area and build a Quaker community. The town of Letchworth was laid out by Raymond Unwin as a demonstration of the principles established by Ebenezer Howard who sought to create an alternative to the industrial city by combining the best of town and country living. It is also home to the United Kingdom's first roundabout, which was built in 1909.
As one of the world's first new towns and the first garden city it had great influence on future town planning and the New towns movement; it influenced Welwyn Garden City, which used a similar approach and inspired other projects around the world including the Australian capital Canberra, Hellerau, Germany, Tapanila, Finland, and Mežaparks in Latvia.) There is a link to town planning in Stalingrad through the architect V. N. Semionov and an account of Lenin visiting the town when he visited England for a congress of the Russian Bolshevik party, then banned in Russia.
Letchworth was one of the ancient parishes of Hertfordshire. The parish church of St Mary the Virgin was built in the 12th or 13th Century. The village was located along the road now called Letchworth Lane, stretching from St Mary's and the adjoining medieval manor house (now Letchworth Hall Hotel) up to the crossroads of Letchworth Lane, Hitchin Road, Baldock Road and Spring Road, where there was a post office. Letchworth was a relatively small parish, having a population in 1801 of 67, rising to 96 by 1901.
Several housing estates have been added to Letchworth since its inception. To the north of the town The Grange began construction in 1947 and to the south east Jackmans was built from 1961. These were council / municipal housing estates with many residents originally coming from the London overspill. Two more prosperous (and private) estates – Lordship and Manor Park – were built from in 1971 to the south west.
Letchworth experiences an oceanic climate (Köppen climate classification Cfb) similar to almost all of the United Kingdom. One sport that has had a remarkably difficult history (considering its national popularity) is association football. Letchworth's main semi-professional club – Letchworth F.C. (the Bluebirds) – went out of business in 2002, only a few years after reforming following Letchworth Garden City FC's financial problems, but nearly a century of struggle and repeated name changes.

Places to see in ( Bourne - UK )
Places to see in ( Bourne - UK )
Bourne is a market town and civil parish in the South Kesteven district of Lincolnshire, England. Bourne is situated on the eastern slopes of the Kesteven Uplands and the western edge of the Lincolnshire Fens. The town is located on a Roman road now known as King Street and was built around the natural springs, hence the name Bourne (or Bourn, as the town was originally known) which derives from the Anglo-Saxon meaning water or stream. It lies on the intersection of the A15 and the A151 roads. The civil parish includes the main township plus the hamlets of Cawthorpe, Dyke and Twenty. In former years Austerby was regarded as a separate settlement, with its own shops and street plan, but is now an area of Bourne known as The Austerby
The ecclesiastical parish of Bourne is part of the Beltisloe Deanery of the Diocese of Lincoln and is based at the Abbey Church of St Peter and St Paul, in Church Walk. The incumbent is Revd Chris Atkinson. Other religious denominations include Methodist, Baptist, United Reformed and Roman Catholic churches. The town's economy was based on rural industries until the railway opened up a market for bottled mineral water. Although it is still focused on agriculture and food preparation for supermarkets, there are also important light engineering and tourism activities. The district has a fast-growing housing market, with considerable new building taking place in Bourne in the 2000s.
Bourne Town Council has two wards which are identical to the South Kesteven District Council wards. Bourne East elects seven councillors to the town council and Bourne West eight. Bourne Market Place is at the crossroads of the A15 road and the B1193. Strictly speaking, it was a staggered pair of T-junctions where the A15 was met by the A151 from Spalding to the east and the B676 from the west (the article A151 road explains) before the B676 was redesignated as an extension of the A151 to Colsterworth.
The Ancient Woodland of Bourne Woods is still extant, although much reduced. It originally formed part of the ancient Forest of Kesteven and is now managed by the Forestry Commission. The earliest documentary reference to Brunna, meaning stream, is from a document of 960, and the town appeared in the Domesday Book as Brune. Bourne Abbey, (charter 1138), formerly held and maintained land in Bourne and other parishes. In later times this was known as the manor of Bourne Abbots.
There are currently 71 listed buildings in the parish of Bourne, the most important being Bourne Abbey and the Parish Church of St Peter and St Paul (1138), which is the only one scheduled Grade I. The others are Grade II, the most colourful being the aptly named Red Hall (c. 1620), finished in red brick with ashlar quoins, many gabled and featuring a fine Tuscan porch. From 1860 to 1959, it was the town's railway station booking office and waiting room. At two stages, in the 1890s and 1960s, it came close to demolition but the building is now well preserved by Bourne United Charities. The former station booking office serves as the BUC's office.
Baldock's Mill (1800), once a corn-grinding water mill, together with the miller's house, has been converted by Bourne Civic Society to serve as the town's Heritage Centre. It houses many interesting artefacts, most recently a water-wheel has been installed and a newly created replica of a Charles Frederick Worth dress is on display. The Baptist Church dates from 1835, but the church itself was established there in the 1640s. This building, the Methodist Church (1841) and the United Reformed Church (1846) are all still in active use.

Watford is a town and borough in Hertfordshire, England, situated 17 miles northwest of central London and inside the circumference of the M25 motorway. It is not to be confused with Watford, Northamptonshire which is 55 miles to the north.
Watford developed on the River Colne on land belonging to St Albans Abbey until the 16th century. During the 12th century a charter was granted allowing a market and building St Mary's Church began. The town grew modestly, assisted by travellers passing through to Berkhamsted Castle and the royal palace at Kings Langley. A big house was built at Cassiobury in the 16th century. This was partly rebuilt in the 17th century and another substantial house was built nearby at The Grove. Connections with the Grand Junction Canal (from 1798) and the London and Birmingham Railway (from 1837) allowed the town to grow more rapidly, with paper-making mills, such as John Dickinson and Co. at Croxley, influencing the development of printing in the town which continues today. Two brewers Benskins and Sedgwicks flourished in the town until their closure in the late 20th century. Hertfordshire County Council designates Watford, along with Stevenage, to be its major sub-regional centre. Several head offices are based in Watford. Both the 2006 World Golf Championship and the 2013 Bilderberg Conference took place at The Grove.
Watford was created as an urban district under the Local Government Act 1894, and became a municipal borough by grant of a charter in 1922. The borough had 90,301 inhabitants at the time of the 2011 census. The borough is separated from Greater London to the south by the parish of Watford Rural in the Three Rivers District. Watford Borough Council is the local authority with the Mayor of Watford as its head; one of only 18 directly elected mayors in England and Wales. Dorothy Thornhill has been the mayor since the directly elected system was set up in May 2002 and is both the first Liberal Democrat and the first female directly elected mayor in the United Kingdom. Watford elects one Member of Parliament (MP) for the Watford constituency. Prior to the establishment of this constituency in 1885 the area was part of the three-seat constituency of Hertfordshire.
Watford is close to the orbital M25 and the M1 which links London to the Midlands and the North. Watford is served by buses which link it to the wider surrounding area. Central Watford is served by 3 railway stations and a Tube station. One of the principal National Rail north-south rail routes, the West Coast Main Line, passes through Watford. Watford is on the main Grand Union Canal route northwards from London. There is little commercial use, since the advent of the motorways, but the canal is used for recreational purposes. The River Gade and the River Colne flow through Watford.

Hitchin Walk: Town Centre【4K】
Located in the county of Hertfordshire, and around 30 miles north of central London, is the town of Hitchin.
The first recorded reference of a settlement at Hitchin dates back to the 7th century where it was mentioned in a document alluding to the central place of the Hicce tribe, from which the town's name is believed to have originated.
At the heart of the town is the medieval St Mary's Church, featuring a 12th century tower, while the rest is mostly 14th and 15th centuries. The church is Grade I listed, and is the largest parish church in Hertfordshire.
Hitchin experienced growth due to the wool industry. Its geographical location near the ancient trackway known as the Icknield Way aided in its early development. From the 17th century it became a staging post for those travelling to and from London. Its distance of around 30 miles from the capital was approximate to one day's travel in the early era of the stagecoach. Thus, various timber-framed former coaching inns can be seen around the town.
In 1850 the railway arrived in Hitchin courtesy of the Great Northern Railway. Whilst this effectively brought an end to the coaching inn industry, it ushered in significant growth in the town. Today the station is situated on the East Coast Main Line from London King's Cross to Edinburgh Waverley, and at a junction linking up with the Cambridge Line which runs, as the name suggests, from Hitchin to Cambridge.
Famous people from Hitchin include Queen Elizabeth The Queen Mother and journalist and TV presenter Jennie Bond.

Royston Walk: Town Centre【4K】
Located in the county of Hertfordshire, and around 12 miles southwest of Cambridge, is the town of Royston.
The origins of Royston as a settlement go back to the 12th century when a lady named Roisia is said to have laid a cross at the intersection of two ancient trackways, namely Ermine Street, the Roman road linking London to York, and the Icknield Way linking East Anglia to Wiltshire. According to folklore, the base of the cross was the Royse Stone - a glacial pebble from the Pennines. The town is named after Lady Roisia, and the stone stands at its centre to this day.
In the late 12th century an Augustinian Priory was founded near the intersection of the two ancient roads. Richard I established a new town around it, and granted it a market charter in 1189. Before long, it became a great confluence of people and trade. The town's long parallel streets are a throwback to the medieval era when market stalls placed down the centre of wide streets gradually became permanent structures. The Priory would later become St John the Baptist Church following Henry VIII's Dissolution of the Monasteries.
Following the death of Queen Elizabeth I in 1603, King James VI of Scotland stopped for the night in Royston on his journey south to London, at which point he became James VI and I (of Scotland and England/Ireland respectively). He is said to have been so taken with the excellent hunting in the area, that he returned to Royston. Here, he purchased multiple properties to house himself and his Court which he used as a base for hunting trips. Additionally, it was here in 1618 that he signed the death warrant of Sir Walter Raleigh.
In 1850 the railway arrived in Royston courtesy of the Royston and Hitchin Railway. Today it is situated on the Cambridge line, providing access to London Kings Cross in just under an hour (or in some cases just over, depending on stops), and to Cambridge in around 15 to 20 minutes.

Royston is a town and civil parish in the District of North Hertfordshire and county of Hertfordshire in England. Royston is situated on the Greenwich Meridian, which brushes the town's eastern boundary, and at the northernmost apex of the county on the same latitude as towns such as Milton Keynes and Ipswich. It is about 43 miles (69 km) north of central London in a rural area. Before the boundary changes of the 1890s, the boundary between Hertfordshire and Cambridgeshire ran east–west through the centre of town along the middle of Melbourn Street.
Until 1540 Royston was divided between five parishes: Barkway, Reed and Therfield in Hertfordshire and Melbourn and Kneesworth in Cambridgeshire. In that year it became a separate ecclesiastical parish, partly in each county. Ralph de Rochester founded the Augustinian priory which originated as a chapel for three canons and was later expanded to seven or more regular canons. Royston had two hospitals or free chapels, as well as the monastery.
Royston Town Council was formed in 1974 as the successor to Royston Urban District Council. The council consists of fifteen councillors headed by a town mayor (currently Mayor lucille shears) The councillors are elected for three wards named Heath, Meridian and Palace. Among the town council's responsibilities are allotments, Royston Cave, Royston Museum, local festivals, public halls and the town's war memorial. In December 2007 Royston Town Council was awarded the nationally recognised status of Quality Town Council. This Award confirms that Royston Town Council is run in accordance with the high standards required by the National Association of Local Councils and other government bodies.
Royston sits at the junction of the A10 and A505 roads, both of which are important road links through Hertfordshire and beyond. The town is also convenient for fast links to London and the north, as it is only a short distance from both the A1(M) and M11 motorways. Nearby air transport links include London Luton and London Stansted airports, both of which are major air hubs in the south of England. Royston railway station provides direct commuter links to both London and Cambridge. It is on the Cambridge Line and is a stopping point for regular services operated by Great Northern Route.
The public open space and nature reserve of Therfield Heath (also known as Royston Heath) overlooks the town from a hill to the south-west. The Icknield Way Path passes through the village on its 110-mile journey from Ivinghoe Beacon in Buckinghamshire to Knettishall Heath in Suffolk. In 1742 a strange cave carved out of the chalk was discovered in the centre of Royston. Royston Cave is located underneath the central crossroads of the town. The carvings in the cave have led to much speculation about the origin and function of the cave.

Baldock Walk: Town Centre【4K】
Located in the county of Hertfordshire, and around 35 miles north of central London, is the town of Baldock.
The origins of Baldock as the settlement we know today go back to the 12th century. Sometime between 1138 and 1148 the Knights Templar founded a Medieval new town here. The name itself is believed to derive from 'Baghdad', possibly in an attempt to draw comparisons with the Middle Eastern city, which at the time was home to what was widely regarded as the most prosperous market in the world.
During the 13th century, St Mary the Virgin Church was built, replacing an older edifice from circa 1150 which had been built by the Templars. Another key historical building in the town is Wynne's Almshouses. Seen at the 2-and-a-half minute mark, this was built in 1621 with funds left by London merchant John Wynne to house the town's poor residents.
Due to its location at the crossing of two historic roads, namely the Great North Road and Icknield Way, Baldock was a key staging post during the stagecoach era of the 17th to 19th century. Consequently, several coaching inns were built, providing rest for travellers whilst their horses were changed. Additionally, Baldock was a centre for brewing and malting from around the 16th century.
In 1850 the railway arrived in Baldock, courtesy of the Royston and Hitchin Railway. Today this is situated on the Cambridge Line which links up to the East Coast Main Line via Hitchin. Trains to London take around 40 to 60 minutes, depending on stops, while trains to Cambridge take around 25 to 30 minutes.

A graciosa cidade medieval de Baldock, no interior da Inglaterra
A graciosa e pequena cidade histórica de Baldock. Foi uma cidade antiga de trocas comerciais, situada no norte de Hertfordshire, no interior da Inglaterra. Os assentamentos paleolíticos, neolíticos e da Idade do Bronze mostram que o local de Baldock tem sido continuamente ocupado desde os tempos pré-históricos.

HST vs Sea! 2U10 at Dawlish Seawall
Tuesday 8th March and a very active sea at Dawlish. This was 2U10, the 06.18 Truro to Cardiff Central lead by HST power car 43 171. She has just called at Dawlish and in this video the driver appears to be taking it very carefully due to the heavy sea spraying onto the tracks.
NHRG e-walks, e-walk 94, Baldock circular. 3/11/21
Another decent 10 mile offering from North Herts Ramblers, on a grey, chill, November day.
The GPX track actually starts in Baldock, but this walker chose to start from Holy Trinity church, Weston, and walk in an anti-clockwise direction.
Some of the early parts of the walk are duplication of a recent Country Walking magazine Wallington circular; pastures, field edges and crossings and pockets of woodland.
Lunch is had at St Mary's church, Wallington, around 3.5 miles into the walk.
Thereafter, the walking is new, along field edges, with good views, and quiet country lanes to the edge of Baldock. From here, the terrain is once again familiar, utilising the Icknield Way up to the Weston Hills.
Likewise for the green way back to Green End, with good views, and so back to Weston.
A very pleasant afternoon's walking, on decent surfaces, despite the gloomy day, and some duplication.
