|
Whitwell Whitwell (4½ miles S.W. of Stevenage) is strictly a hamlet, but is a place of some size, scattered along the south bank of the river Maran. The nearest parish church is at St. Paul's Walden, but there is a modern Baptist chapel near the centre of the main street, and a small church on the Bendish Road, formerly owned by the Countess of Huntingdon's Connection; it is now partially disused. The mill at the E. end of the village, near the old tan-yard, was burnt down a few years ago, but has since been rebuilt. Hertfordshire - Little Guide, 1903
