Norton Green Homepage


Norton Green is a small hamlet clinging to the western edge of the New Town of Stevenage but separated by the A1(M). Despite this the place retains a quiet rural atmosphere.

Dist:0.9km<br/>Taken at about 9:30 am so not filled with fun loving leisure time fillers. This park is signposted locally as a "tourist attraction"! is this really the best that Stevenage has to offer? And no that is not a beam of sunshine radiating down on Stevenage - that never happens - I have stitched three shots together using Adobe.

Dist:1.0km<br/>OK do you believe the OS who say that these features are tumuli or legend which says that these humps are lumps of soil thrown at travellers on the old Great North Road (just to the right of these humps but rather imposing nowadays)? It is said that these were thrown here from Weston Woods ([[TL2432]] and [[TL2532]]). Dick Turpin would have ridden past these on Black Bess on his ride from York to London.

Dist:1.0km north<br/>This industrial estate consists of small units and this one could be any of them. A hundred yards behind me when I took this photograph is the A1(M), but you wouldn't know it from here and a couple of hundred yards further than that is an old Roman road.

Dist:1.0km south<br/>The A1 (J7) is less than half a mile in this direction but I could have been in the middle of nowhere, lovely!
