Watford is a town based within the circuit of the M25, just north west of London.
Originally mentioned in an Anglo Saxon charter of 1007, it does not appear in the Domesday Book of 1086 for some unknown reason.
It has seen its population grow from being a small Anglo Saxon hamlet to an one of over 80,000 today according to stats.
The Industrial Revolution in the 18th century brought the Grand Union Canal in 1798, and the London to Birmingham railway in 1837.
It remained an area of cottage industries, meaning people manufacturing goods from home, rather than large scale production.
Brewing has been a big part of the economy in the town since the 17th century, and the two main brewers, Benskin’s and Sedgwick’s, still exist today.
