About

Redbourn ward encompasses the village of Redbourn and its surrounding rural landscape within the St Albans district. The area is centred around the High Street, which serves as a functional hub with local shops and services. The ward includes significant areas of farmland and the course of the River Ver, which runs to the south of the main settlement. Residential development is primarily concentrated in the village core, with housing extending out towards the common land.

The large area of Redbourn Common, with its cricket ground and historic mileposts, forms a notable open space at the village's eastern approach. The Grand Union Canal passes through the northern section of the ward, separate from the main village. Land use is distinctly mixed, combining a settled community with active agricultural operations and protected green belt areas that limit urban expansion from nearby St Albans.
