Nash Mills

About

Nash Mills ward lies in the southern part of Dacorum, bordered by the Grand Union Canal and the River Gade. The area is primarily residential, with housing ranging from post-war developments to newer estates, alongside some light industrial and commercial units. The landscape is characterised by the waterways and the gentle slopes of the Gade Valley, providing a distinct sense of separation from the more urban centre of Hemel Hempstead to the north.

The Grand Union Canal is a central feature, with a historic lock and towpath forming a key recreational route. The area includes the former Nash Mills paper mill site, a reminder of its industrial heritage, now largely redeveloped. Local amenities are focused around a small parade of shops and community facilities, serving the immediate neighbourhood. The ward maintains a quiet, suburban character defined by its waterways and green corridors.
