On the northern edge of the Chilterns is the medieval market town of Hitchin. In King Offa's time it was a settlement called Hicce and part of Mercia. Today, the town retains its market town feel and has many fine Grade II listed buildings, particularly around Market Place and St Mary's, the largest parish church in Hertfordshire. Its size reflects Hitchin's prosperity from the wool trade and later from grain trading, helped by its location on the Icknield Way, a medieval trade and pilgrimage route. During the 17th century Hitchin was also a staging post for London-bound coaches. The photographs were taken in May 2015 unless otherwise stated.
