More about this scene
This village of great beauty is said to be the most photographed in Hertfordshire. The post office and shop now also serve as a successful tea shop, and display examples of the work of local artists and craftsmen. Peeping behind the pump cover is the unique timber-framed Village Hall - a monument to the Arts and Crafts movement. Westmill stood near the northern end of the now-closed Buntingford Branch Railway line, and was famous for its almost forgotten Folk Museum. It was the home of Nathaniel Salmon, one of the earliest Hertfordshire historians.
