ABOUT THE WEST SIDE

Welwyn Garden City was founded by Sir Ebenezer Howard in the 1920s and designated a new town in 1948. It was aimed to combine the benefits of the city and countryside. Surrounded by rolling Hertfordshire countryside, Welwyn Garden City was an escape from life in overcrowded cities to a place of sunshine, leafy lanes, countryside and cafes. Emphasis was placed on the Garden City's healthy environment. Today it’s a busy and bustling town with a selection of shops, the Howard Shopping Centre is located in the centre of Welwyn Garden City where you can find a selection of high street favorites including John Lewis, there is also a Waitrose and a Sainsbury’s in the town. Welwyn Garden also has its own quaint cinema in the town centre, showing the latest films.
