Some Harpenden History

Harpenden village grew out of Westminster Abbeys gradual clearing of woodland for farming and settlement within its Wheathampstead manor, granted by Edward the Confessor in 1060. A first reference to Harpenden was the parish church in 1221, here it was referred to as Harpendene. The church of St Nicholas is the oldest church in Harpenden.

Just beyond the southern edge of Harpenden lies Nomansland Common, which is usually called No Mans Land. It was here that part of the Second Battle of St Albans was fought during the Wars of the Roses. Nomansland Common also saw the first annually contested steeplechase in England in 1830. The common at Harpenden also saw the last bare knuckle fight of nineteenth century. It was also the haunt of the highwaywoman known as Lady Katherine Ferrers, better known as the Wicked Lady.
