About Hitchin

Known for

The lavender fields (one of England's finest lavender farms, Hitchin Lavender), the medieval market town centre, the Church of St Mary (one of Hertfordshire's finest), and a Hertfordshire market town of real independent character

A little history

Hitchin has been a market town since the medieval period. The Church of St Mary is one of the finest medieval churches in Hertfordshire. Hitchin's lavender fields, grown since the Victorian era, create one of England's most beautiful summer landscapes.

Local tip

Hitchin Lavender in July is extraordinary — rows of purple to the horizon and exceptional honey and products. The market on Tuesdays and Saturdays. The High Street for independent shopping.
