Description

The River Mimram (also known as the Maran or Mimerum) flows quietly down the dip slope of the Chiltern Hills from its source in an area of beautiful countryside close to Luton, Hitchin and Stevenage. After passing through Welwyn and Welwyn Garden City, the Mimram joins the River Lea at the outskirts of the county town of Hertford. As a chalk stream, the Mimram belongs to a very rare class of rivers. The special geology of its valley provides not only rich farmland, but also an environment for a wealth of natural flora and fauna. Over the years, the river's great scenic beauty has attracted many people to build grand country houses and parks along its length. This book follows the length of this glorious waterway, exploring its fascinating history and links to folklore and legend, and is an essential volume for newcomers and visitors to Hertfordshire, as well as anyone who knows and loves this enchanting river.
