About

Welham Green sits in the borough of Welwyn Hatfield in Hertfordshire, north of Hatfield and just south of Potters Bar. The village developed around the East Coast Main Line and gained a station in 1986; the station sits on the line between Potters Bar and Hatfield and provides local services into central London. The A1(M) runs close by, giving road access to nearby towns and faster links to the M25. Housing in the village mixes post-war terraces and later suburban estates, and small shops line the main road near the station.

Local life centres on community facilities, a village hall and green spaces that open onto fields and woodlands to the east and west. Footpaths lead into the surrounding countryside used by walkers and cyclists, while a handful of pubs and convenience outlets serve daily needs. Planning and services come under Welwyn Hatfield borough, and commuters frequently choose Welham Green for rail connections combined with access to immediate rural areas.
