Local Area - Town centre location within walking distance to Hitchin railway station. Trains into London Kings Cross and St Pancras circa 31 mins.

Hitchin is a beautiful historic market town based in North Hertfordshire and according to The Times' Best Places To Live it was voted as the 9th best place to live in the UK in 2013. It has outstanding primary schools and secondary schools.

Shopping: Unlike many other towns, Hitchin has a rich diversity of independent businesses. The town is still able to boast independent food retailers, a wealth of hair and beauty salons and an even greater range of coffee shops and restaurants.

The market itself remains an important part of the town trading four days a week: Tuesday and Saturday, general market, Friday bric-a-brac and collectables and Sunday, car boot.

Outdoor Space: Small and large green spaces throughout Hitchin provide a wide variety of open spaces, including Bancroft Gardens, Windmill Hill with panoramic views over the town centre. The Hitchin Priory, a beautiful 14th Century building set in 19 acres of picturesque gardens. There is also Hitchin Swimming Centre which offers 2 indoor pools, an Outdoor Pool with Art Deco lido and fitness centre with gym and 3 fitness studios.

Each reading is based on the highest predicted speed of any major broadband network for services that deliver the download speeds. The following are the different readings that we may display:

    Basic: Up to 30 Mbit/s
    Super-fast: Between 30 Mbit/s and 300 Mbit/s
    Ultra-fast: Over 300 Mbit/s

    Mobile phone signal availability and predicted strength: obtained from Ofcom on March 8, 2024

    Mobile signal predictions are provided by the four UK mobile network operators: EE, O2, Three and Vodafone. Predictions can vary significantly from the coverage you may actually experience as a result of local factors (especially terrain). Ofcom has tested the actual coverage provided in various locations around the UK to help ensure that these predictions are reasonable. The values shown against a property can be broken down as follows:

    Clear: No bars, no signal predicted
    Red: One bar, reliable signal unlikely
    Amber: Two bars, may experience problems with connectivity
    Green: Three bars, likely to have good coverage and receive a data rate to support basic web services
    Enhanced: Full bars, likely to have good coverage indoors and to receive an enhanced data rate to support multimedia services
