Home Survey Services for Hatfield Properties
Hatfield is a historic Hertfordshire town dominated by Hatfield House, the Jacobean mansion of the Marquess of Salisbury. The town splits into two distinct areas: Old Hatfield, with its village character, period cottages and Victorian terraces near the gates of Hatfield Park; and the modern town centre, rebuilt in the post-war period. The housing stock is predominantly post-war — 1950s-1970s semis and detached houses — with newer developments around the University of Hertfordshire campus and Galleria area. The geology is London Clay with gravel deposits, and the town sits on the Great North Road with excellent A1(M) and rail connections to London King's Cross in around 25 minutes.
