Sitting close to the River Rib, Puckeridge village is surrounded by open fields and attractive East Hertfordshire countryside.

Dating back to the Celts and the former setting of a Roman town, it was at the crossroads of two major Roman roads and later became a popular stop on the Cambridge to London coaching route, with many taverns and inns. Now a highly desirable place to call home, the village benefits from two public houses, a tea room, pharmacy, hairdresser, petrol station, garage and gift shop, along with a GP, community centre, three schools and a nursery. 

Families can choose from two primary schools in the village, both rated Outstanding by Ofsted, as well as a wide range of well-regarded state and independent schools for older children throughout the local area.

The historic towns of Hertford and Ware are less than 10 miles away, with many timber-framed buildings, riverside gazebos and scenic parks, including the Grade 1 Listed Hertford Castle. There are plenty of shops, bars and restaurants to enjoy too, with an even greater choice in Bishop’s Stortford, which is around 7 miles from Puckeridge. Whether you fancy getting active or taking it easy, you’ll discover an array of golf and leisure clubs offering extensive facilities close by.
