Stevenage is a town in Hertfordshire, England, between Letchworth Garden City and Welwyn Garden City. It was designated a New Town in the 1950s at which point the population began to increase from that of an average sized village to that of a large town. The town is situated by a Roman Road that can be traced from the former Roman Village of Verulamium, where visitors can still see a number of Roman features, to Baldock, the existing town of which was founded by the Knights Templar. A number of Romano-British artefacts, including a hoard of coins, were uncovered while the new town of Stevenage was being constructed, and the "Six Hills" feature of the town are actually six tumuli, or family burial mounds.
Visitors will find that the town has a very good high street, with excellent shopping and a number of traditional pubs and restaurants, including a pub named "Our Mutual Friend" located in neighbouring Broadwater, which appears to have inspired the title of the Dickens novel, as the author had been a guest in the area for some time. Two other notable Victorian Novelists from the area are E.M. Forster, author of the classic "A Passage to India", who lived in the town in the 1880s; and Sir Edward Bulwer-Lytton, who lived at Knebworth House — a famous gothic stately home known for hosting regular rock concerts.
The attractions of the local area include Stevenage Museum, Knebworth House, Park and Gardens and Cromer Windmill.
