Hertford Castle Gardens

A popular park in the centre of Hertford with much historical value. The site is still formally owned by The Marquis of Salisbury but managed and developed by Hertford Town Council and East Herts Council.

Working with Hertford Town Council we are currently developing a five year management plan for Hertford Castle Gardens - further information will be available soon.

Archaeology in Castle Park

Exciting archaeological discoveries have been made at Castle Park. Most recently, a series of medieval burials were unearthed close to the remnants of Waytemore Castle. Initial assessments, led by Museum of London Archaeology (MOLA), through a method known as carbon-14 dating, have found that two of the graves date back to the 10th century, firmly placing them in the Anglo-Saxon period. Four community digs have also taken place, the most recent in July 2024.
