The space behind Martin Hale, Nat West, Fore St EE agency and beside the old garage next to Iceland. Oh wait, that will be filled with builders vans from next week.

If you are unaware, Gascoigne Way is £2.80 for an all day ticket and it's pretty much right in the centre of town. It also has the added benefit of easy access by foot. Bircherley Green has gates that close off the pedestrianised area, so after (I think) 5.30pm you have to walk up the car acces ramp round the corner. Hope this helps.

Very negative comment. Lots of young familys are moving to Hertford from London, because of the great things we have such as schooling, parks and the community.

The young and healthy might move here but then they drive everywhere and become less healthy.

to be honest that comment was made in jest, I am not that young and certainly the health issue is jepordized by the amount of wine and cheese that pass my lips! [}:)] Although I agree that a lot of people seem to go everywhere by car. A brisk walk is a lot healthier then stressing over a parking space in a car park!

As part of an on going project checked out Gascoyne way this morning at about 9.45. Top two floors packed; although had a chat with John Hudson about an hour ago and he said he found a space there. Bottom two floors (the short stay) alomost deserted. Took pics to back up my findings. Most of my research suggests that the top two floors (long stay) are almost always full every day. One other option might be Baker Street which today was empty. Regular readers will know what this project is and when one of the many consultants - Pell Frischman - did a survey they concluded that a lot of the spaces were taken up by commuters using North and East stations. In short - book early to avoid disappointment.
