Meet Hertford Town football stadium car park, West Street, Hertford . From the A10 take the A414 into Hertford, at the 2nd roundabout turn left into Gascoigne Way, cross over the next roundabout then turn left at the next turning (West Street) continue for approx 500 yards then take the next on right – this looks more like a track than a road. This walk is on the route of the old railway line from Hertford to Welwyn Garden City through the villages of Letty Green and Cole Green, stopping for refreshments at the Cowper Arms before rejoining the rail path back to Hertford. Walk is on level cycle paths and village roads. |
