It’s 50 years since East Herts District Council came into being which saw the end of Hertford Borough Council after hundreds of years.

We moved to Hertford in 1982 and it became our permanent base having spent some 15yrs moving every couple of years, with HM Forces. My sons went to Morgans Walk and Richard Hale and the youngest quickly found the Museum and spent many happy hours learning everything he could about Hertford. My interest in the town was slow to grow as I was then working in London and spent every weekend concentrated on family time.
