Driver's End Hertfordshire Map

About Driver's End

Driver's End lies west of the busy A1, a quiet corner of Hertfordshire where the land begins its gentle, southward slope towards the chalk downs. It lies 4.7 km south-south-west of Stevenage (from Stevenage: bearing 205°T, OS grid TL 220 198), and is situated west-south-west of Old Knebworth village. The air here, particularly on a late afternoon in spring, carries a subtle, earthy fragrance, a blend of damp soil and the first tentative blossoms of hawthorn hedging that delineates the fields. The cottages of Driver's End, many of them rendered in a soft, pale brick that seems to absorb the muted northern light, huddle close to the lane, their gardens spilling over with the cheerful colours of primroses and early tulips. A faint, almost forgotten echo of agricultural past lingers, in the sturdy oak trees that stand sentinel at the edges of pastures, their branches like gnarled hands reaching towards the sky.
