About Fencing in Hatfield
Hatfield in Hertfordshire is best known for Hatfield House, built in 1611 by Robert Cecil beside the remains of the earlier royal palace where Elizabeth I spent much of her childhood and learned of her accession to the throne in 1558. The town itself was rebuilt as a new town after the Second World War, with Old Hatfield retaining much of its earlier character close to the estate.
