  • Back to WATFORD, walking through in the city. Actually, there's a slight inaccuracy in your question.
    Watford isn't technically in London. It's located in Hertfordshire, a county bordering London. However, it's still a very close neighbor and has some interesting connections to the big city.
    It takes an average of 42m to travel from Watford to London by train, over a distance of around 15 miles (25 km).
    Here are 5 curious facts about Watford:
    Hollywood History: Scenes from the award-winning movie "The History Boys" were filmed at Watford Grammar School for Boys and Girls.
    Ovaltine Oasis: Ever have a mug of Ovaltine? The famous malted drink was once produced in a massive factory in Watford. Though the factory is now converted into flats, it's a reminder of the town's unique industrial past.
    Wartime Films: During the 1960s, the former RAF Bovingdon airfield near Watford became a filming location for several World War II movies, including "The Battle of Britain”.
    Comedy Connection: Did you know comedian Robin Ince, known for his work with Ricky Gervais, was born in the village of Chenies, which is very close to Watford?
    Tube Territory: Watford may not be in London proper, but it boasts its own connection to the London Underground network with Watford station on the Metropolitan Line.
    Join us as we embark on this visual journey through Watford’s downtown, offering you a slice of life in one of the UK’s most charming regions.
    Sit back relax, and Let's Go on an Adventure in this Virtual Walking Tour.

    I lived on the Tudor for 25 years,
    Thanks for showing what Watford has become....on a happier note, maybe do a Video in Cassiobury Park, in the summer ....that would balance out the "Sh** " to what you showed....at St Alban's road looks terrible !! It always did though... Some great pubs further down, the Veralum and Hertfordshire Arms, ...that part of St Alban's road was Wild back in the early 00's

      Same here. Used to live in Oxhey up until 25 years ago. Lots of memories. It has changed a lot, not for the better in my view. Thanks for the video. If you could do one around Oxhey village that would be great!

    Thanks for uploading lived in North Watford in the early 2000 s where you was walking at the beginning of the video . The market was under next to the ymca building around that time , am I Wright in thinking that the market where it is now was the original market before the shopping centre was built ? .

      Hello Elaine, obrigado por assistir e comentar 🙏 Watford é a maior cidade do condado vizinho de Hertfordshire, mas também faz parte de Londres, ela fica a 25 Km do centro de Londres, considerado zone 7 do metrô. 😉

    What a dump Watford has become…I grew up there and cannot believe the planning disasters that have been allowed to happen. It is an ugly concrete monstrosity now. Who on earth agreed to the flyover right through the middle of the town! The pond area used to be a nice quaint, picturesque area, now it is an eyesore. The road network around Watford Town, what a disaster that is. The mix of building types looks so unco-ordinated that they just look awful. I’m so glad I moved away.

      I haven't lived there for nearly 8 yrs now and I don't regret it. Would be nice to visit my old estate though to see how it's changed.
