Overview of Hitchin

The town of Hitchin is located North of Gatwick airport a distance of 83 miles that would take around 1 hour 29 minutes by taxi via the M25 and A1. Hitchin is a market town in the county of Hertfordshire, with an estimated population of 30,360.

In the Domesday Book of 1086 Hitchin is recorded as a Royal Manor and by medieval times it was a thriving town on the banks of the River Hiz. Today it still gives an air of peace and prosperity. The present church dates from the 13th century and was built with money from the wool trade. The surrounding lands favoured the breeding of sheep on the hillsides, while the flat land grew excellent crops of wheat, barley and lavender, and trade grew rapidly. Communications have always been important. Before the Romans came there were ancient trackways criss-crossing the country. The Icknield Way, once a significant trade route, passes by the northern edge of Hitchin and makes for some interesting walks. After the 17th century, Hitchin became a frequent staging post for London coaches and many of the inns from that time, with their picturesque courtyards, can still be seen in Hitchin's narrow streets. By the middle of the 19th century the railway had arrived, and with it a new way of life for Hitchin. The Corn Exchange was built in the Market Place and within a short time Hitchin established itself as a major centre for grain trading. The latter half of the 20th century has also brought great changes in communication to Hitchin. Motorways have shortened the journey time and brought Luton, a few miles away on the Ml, and the Al(M) even closer.

Today, the town of Hitchin is rich in its history and architecture, with Nikolaus Pevsner once describing Hitchin as being, after St Albans, the most visually satisfying town in the county. The Historic Market held in the town every Tuesday and Saturday have been taking place for hundreds of years.
