Watford is a town in the English county of Hertfordshire. It lies 27 kilometres outside of central London. The town grew from an Anglo-Saxon settlement, which was between a ford of the River Colne and the crossroads of two ancient tracks. The church of St Mary the Virgin was built in the same place as an earlier Saxon church, and is a nice place to see today. Other places of interest around Watford include Casiobury Park, with its lovely landscaped gardens. There is a fun children’s play area in the park. The Town Hall, known as the Watford Colosseum, is a fine sight. The Palace Theatre is a fabulous place to see a live performance or show, or you may wish to try the Pump House Theatre.
