Great British Market Towns- Tring
As we ease out of lockdown we drive through the historic town of Tring. A visit to Tring would not be complete without a meander along the High Street with a wealth of independently run shops, cafes, bars and restaurants, each renowned for their warm Chilterns welcome. Many are family-run businesses that have been long established in this historic market town, and typify the long history in local specialty food. In 2015, Tring celebrated its 700th year as a market town, with the Friday Charter market trading in the same place on the high street.

Tring Walk: Town Centre【4K】
Located in the county of Hertfordshire, and around 30 miles northwest of central London, is the town of Tring.
Geographically Tring is situated at the edge of the Chiltern Hills where the ancient Icknield Way crosses the Roman Akeman Street. The name 'Tring' is believed to come from Old English 'Tredunga' or 'Trehangr', meaning 'slope where trees grow'.
In 1315 Tring was granted a market charter by Edward II. At the heart of the town stands St Peter and St Paul's Church, which is thought to date back to circa 1100. The edifice as it stands today was rebuilt between the 13th and 15th century.
In 1633, the great grandfather of George Washington - John Washington, was born in Tring. In 1656 he left the town to go on a trading voyage to Virginia but after a shipwreck on the Potomac River he remained in Virginia, married and started a family.
In 1682 Tring Manor House was designed by Christopher Wren. Situated just over a mile east of the town centre, it was built for Colonel Henry Guy, Groom of the Bedchamber to King Charles II. In the late 19th century the Manor became the home of a branch of the Rothschild banking family, who would go on to hold considerable influence over Tring. The distinctive building on stilts at the intersection of the High Street and Akeman Street is Tring Market House. This was built in 1898 in the Tudor revival style and was funded primarily by the Rothschilds. Walter Rothschild built a private zoological museum in Tring. This housed one of the largest collection of stuffed animals in the world. Since 1937 it has been under the control of the Natural History Museum in London.
In 1793 work began on the construction of the Grand Junction Canal, reaching Tring by 1799. This would later form part of the Grand Union Canal which connects London to Birmingham and Leicester. The arrival of the canal brought a boost to Tring as goods could be transported over the waterways. In 1837 the railway arrived in Tring courtesy of the London and Birmingham Railway. Today this is situated on the West Coast Main Line which runs from London Euston to Glasgow and Edinburgh via the Midlands and North West. Trains to London take around three quarters of an hour from Tring. This would make it ideally situated as a commuter town if not for a key caveat - that the railway station is situated just short of two miles away from the town centre.
Following the death of Charles Rothschild in 1923, the banking family's estate in Tring was gradually sold off. In 1945 Tring Manor House was leased, and later sold, to an independent performing arts school. Today it has been repurposed as a luxury hotel known as Pendley Manor.

Places to see in ( Hitchin - UK )
Places to see in ( Hitchin - UK )
Hitchin is a market town in the North Hertfordshire District in Hertfordshire, England. The town flourished on the wool trade, and located near the Icknield Way and by the 17th century Hitchin was a staging post for coaches coming from London. By the middle of the 19th century the railway had arrived, and with it a new way of life for Hitchin. The corn exchange was built in the market place and within a short time Hitchin established itself as a major centre for grain trading.
The latter half of the 20th century has also brought great changes in communication to Hitchin. Motorways have shortened the journey time and brought Luton, a few miles away on the M1, and the A1 (M) even closer. By the close of the 20th century, Hitchin had become a satellite dormitory town for London. Hitchin also developed a fairly strong Sikh community based around the Walsworth area.
Hitchin railway station is on the Great Northern Line, to which the Cambridge Line connects just north of the station. There are direct connections to London, Stevenage, Peterborough, and Cambridge. Journeys to London and Cambridge both last approximately 30 minutes on the Express services. Stevenage is 5 minutes away and Peterborough is typically 45 minutes distance in journey-time. The A505, A600 and A602 roads intersect in Hitchin, which is about three miles (5 km) from the A1(M) motorway and about ten miles (16 km) from the M1 motorway. Hitchin is about 9 miles from Luton Airport with a direct bus service linking the two.
Hitchin hosts an annual Arts & Music Festival in July which in previous years included Rhythms of the World. Hitchin Festival includes picnics, concerts, theatre, ghost walks, art exhibitions, comedy club, talks, summer fetes and fireworks. Since 2014, Hitchin has hosted the yarn festival Festiwool, organised and run by members of Hitchin Stitchin.

Places to see in ( Tring - UK )
Tring is a small market town and civil parish in the Borough of Dacorum, Hertfordshire, England. Situated in a gap passing through the Chiltern Hills, classed as an Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty , 30 miles (48 km) north-west of London, and linked to London by the old Roman road of Akeman Street, by the modern A41, by the Grand Union Canal and by rail lines to Euston Station.
Settlements in Tring date back to Prehistoric times and it was mentioned in the Domesday Book. Tring received its market town charter in 1315. Tring is now largely a commuter town within the London commuter belt. The name Tring is believed to derive from the Anglo-Saxons Tredunga or Trehangr. Tre', meaning 'tree' and with the suffix 'ing' implying 'a slope where trees grow'.
Tring was the dominant settlement in the area, being the primary settlement in the Hundred of Tring during the Domesday Book. Tring had a very large population and paid a large amount of tax relative to most settlements listed in the Domesday book. The mansion of Tring Park was designed by Sir Christopher Wren and was built in 1682 for the owner Henry Guy, Gentleman of the Privy Chamber to Charles II.
Tring is in west Hertfordshire, adjacent to the Buckinghamshire border, at a low point in the Chiltern Hills known as the 'Tring Gap'. This has been used as a crossing point since ancient times, being at the junction of the Icknield Way and under the Romans Akeman Street, the major Roman road linking London to Cirencester. It is transected east and west by the ancient earthwork called Grim's Dyke. It is located at the summit level of the Grand Union Canal and both the canal and railway pass through in deep cuttings. Tring railway cutting is 2.5 mi (4.0 km) long and an average of 39 ft (12 m) deep and is celebrated in a series of coloured lithographs by John Cooke Bourne showing its construction in the 1830s.
Tring railway station is about 2 mi (3 km) from the town and is served by London Midland services from Milton Keynes Central to London Euston, and Southern operates the cross-London service to South Croydon via Clapham Junction. The station is served by slow and semi-fast trains. The station was originally opened in 1837 by the London and Birmingham Railway (L&BR) under the direction of the railway engineer Robert Stephenson.
The remote location of Tring railway station was due to changes to the route of the railway imposed on Stephenson by local landowners such as Lord Brownlow who wished to protect his Ashridge Estate. Tring railway station was once considered as the terminus of an extension to the Metropolitan Railway (today's London Underground Metropolitan line) from Chesham but this project was not realised. In 1973 the A41 bypass was opened. The route of this new road runs through Tring Park.
Tring Sports Centre is in the grounds of Tring School. Tring is the former home town of Premiership referee and 2003 FA Cup Final referee Graham Barber, now retired in Spain. It is also home to the retired FA and World Cup referee Graham Poll. Tring is home to three football clubs, Tring Athletic, Tring Town and Tring Corinthians, all of which play in the Spartan South Midlands Football League, and to a youth football club, Tring Tornadoes, which field sides for boys and girls up to 16.
