Moving to Watford?

Watford began as a settlement in the twelfth century when the Abbot of St Albans who owned the land here was given permission to hold a weekly market. He chose a site on a slight rise above the ford over the river Colne, along a route already used by travellers. The town and the land around it continued to be controlled by the Abbot until the sixteenth century, when it was seized by the Crown during the Dissolution of the Monasteries. It was a mainly agricultural community, with some cottage industries: this remained the same until the Industrial Revolution brought the Grand Union Junction Canal and the London Birmingham Railway. Traditional trades were supplemented by brewing and printing. Then came the invention of papermaking machines; first came the paper factories, then the plants to make the machinery required and from this other types of engineering again. By 1878 there were eight printing firms, three breweries and four coach builders and by 1900 Watford was an established industrial centre. Its population had increased from 2,960 in 1831 to 29,327.

Most of the town’s inhabitants now worked for the railway and large housing estates were built to home them. Concurrently, it started to attract wealthy businessmen who wanted to live away from the hustle and bustle of London but within easy commuting distance. Lured by the orchards, green fields and wooded countryside of Watford, they came in ever-increasing numbers. Today the town has become a suburb of the capital but it retains a healthy green atmosphere and a small town vibe that are difficult to resist.

The first place to visit should be the Watford Museum, which has a wide array of exhibitions. Goal-den Years is a collection of memorabilia relating to Watford Football Club, whose supporters are passionately optimistic. The fine art collection is bijou but excellent, including paintings by Adam Francios van der Meulen, Klases Moleneart, Pieter Neeffs the Elder and Adriaen van Ostade. The museum also organises High Street trails, which take in places like the fifteenth century Almshouse and the Free School. Cassiobury Park is stunning, a 190 acre expanse of trees, streams and fields with a nature reserve and a children’s train track. Matches at Watford FC are always good fun: crowds are small but very friendly, even when the home team isn’t doing so well.

The arts scene is very vibrant for a small town. Space2 is a program of exhibitions in spaces across Watford, which change regularly. Watford Colosseum was used to record the soundtracks for The Lord of the Rings, The Sound of Music, The Star Wars Trilogies, and Sleepy Hollow, soundtracks and is world renowned for its acoustic qualities, often said to be the best available in the UK. The Palace Theatre and the Pumphouse both have excellent theatrical and musical programmes. Outside the town, the beautiful Grove Hotel used to be a country house and still has gorgeous formal gardens: it’s a wonderful place to go for dinner.
