Stunning little village. Good for a snack stop.

Such a pretty village in the Spring sunshine and the Axe and Compass pub looks like a good spot for refreshment, although I didn't have time to stop in.

The heart of historic Hertford with it's castle and old inn at the gateway to London proper. Great place to stop and take a look around.

The road fords the River Ash here near Hadham Cross. There is a footbridge for pedestrians or cyclists who don't want wet feet.
