About Fencing in Broxbourne
Broxbourne in Hertfordshire takes its name from an old English term meaning badger's stream, and the borough that bears its name spans the valley of the River Lee, once heavily quarried for gravel and sand during the twentieth century, leaving behind numerous lakes now forming part of the Lee Valley Regional Park. The town developed alongside neighbouring Hoddesdon as part of a ribbon of settlement following the river, road and railway routes north from London, with the Northern and Eastern Railway reaching Broxbourne by 1840.
