Bishop's StortfordWeb Directory

Bishops Stortford, is situated on the eastern border of Hertfordshire, the town's unique character, which has developed from its early days as a coaching stop and market centre, offers a rich heritage for both the resident and visitor to explore. The River Stort, which runs through the middle of Bishops Stortford, took its name from the town, predating any mention of a river by several hundred years. The arrival of the railway in Victorian times laid the foundation for its present importance as a market town and a favoured commuter area for the City of London, just 35 minutes away by rail. Other important communication links located just outside the town include Stansted Airport, the M11 motorway and the east-west A120 trunk road.
