More about Sawbridgeworth Herts Essex
Set in the east of the district on the Herts-Essex
border, Sawbridgeworth retains its historic character
and the considerable quiet, period charm it has
possessed for centuries. Just over 8,400 inhabitants
enjoy Sawbridgeworth's peaceful setting, which is
located four miles south of Bishop's Stortford and
twelve miles east of the County town of Hertford. The
town is also popular with commuters, with fast rail
links to London's Liverpool Street Station and only 27

Sawbridgeworth's steady prosperity, coupled with 18th
century river transport. Today, the River Stort provides
attractive riverside walks and regular cruises run from
Sawbridgeworth during the summer months.
In the Domesday Book, the Manor of "Sabrixteworde" was
considered one of the most valuable estates in the
county and given by William the Conqueror to Geoffrey de
Mandeville after the Battle of Hastings.The town has
other associations with royalty - local notable Sir John
Leventhorpe was an executor of Henry V's will and Henry
VIII gave Anne Boleyn the fine Tudor mansion and estate,
Pishiobury, located to the south of the town.
Until recently, Sawbridgeworth was the home to one of
the oldest and most renowned nursery firms in the
country, Thomas Rivers and Son Ltd, who were first
established in 1725. Many new fruit varieties were
raised here including nearly thirty kinds of plum. The
nursery closed in the 1980s and the site is now a
private hospital complex, with the orchard having been
regenerated by the Friends of Rivers Nursery Orchard and
still available for visiting.
