About

Clarence Park is a residential neighbourhood situated just south of St Albans city centre.

The park itself is a central hub, featuring a historic bandstand and a pavilion that serves as the clubhouse for St Albans Cricket Club. The area is served by its own railway station on the Thameslink line, offering direct connections to London. Local shops and amenities are concentrated along Victoria Street, which forms a practical high street for everyday needs.
