About the Area:
The village of Walkern sits in a picturesque rural setting on the River Beane, surrounded by countryside - but just a few miles from the bustle of Stevenage. Walkern has historic links - pre-dating the Magna Carta, and St Mary’s Church is considered the oldest in Hertfordshire, with parts of it believed to have been built around 1000AD. In 2015 Walkern became twinned with the beautiful Breton village of Lanvallay, France, the ancestral seat of William de Lanvelei. With its’ range of shops and hostelries – including an art gallery – in addition to being a lovely place to live, Walkern is an ideal spot for walkers and day-trippers alike to explore. Further amenities include a doctor’s surgery, public house, a petrol station and a craft shop. Walkern Primary School, was rated ‘good’ by Ofsted at its last inspection. The school’s main building was built in 1926, and has been extended several times since.
