More about this scene
The name of the town of Letchworth appears to derive from 'lecha weorthig', 'the farm by the rivulet'. There is no mention of a church here at the time of Domesday, although there was woodland for 100 pigs. Robert Gernon held the manor, and his name is remembered in Gernon Road, home of the District Council Offices. St Mary's lies just off Letchworth Lane, some distance from the original town, but close to Letchworth Manor.
