Hertford is the county town of Hertfordshire, England, and is also a civil parish in the East Hertfordshire district of the county. Forming a civil parish, Since 1974, Hertford has been within the East Hertfordshire district of Hertfordshire.The headquarters of Hertfordshire County Council is at County Hall in Hertford. East Herts District Council's offices almost adjoin County Hall, and there is also a Hertford Town Council based at Hertford Castle.
Hertford is at the confluence of four river valleys: the Rib, Beane and Mimram join the River Lea at Hertford to flow south toward the Thames as the Lee Navigation, after Hertford Castle Weir.The shared valley of the Lea and the Beane is called Hartham Common and this provides a large park to one side of the town centre running towards Ware and lying below the ridge upon which Bengeo is situated.
The town centre still has its medieval layout with many timber-framed buildings hidden under later frontages, particularly in St Andrew Street. Hertford suffers from traffic problems despite the existence of the 1960s A414 bypass called Gascoyne Way which passes close to the town centre. Plans have long existed to connect the A10 with the A414, by-passing the town completely. Nevertheless, the town retains very much a country-town feel, despite lying only 19.2 miles (30.9 km) north of Central London. This is aided by its proximity to larger towns such as Harlow, Bishop's Stortford and Stevenage where modern development has been focused.

In the town are the remains of the original Hertford Castle, principally a motte. The castle's gatehouse, the central part of which dates to a rebuild by Edward IV in 1463, is the home to Hertford Town Council. The Motte, from the original Motte and Bailey castle in Hertford, can be found just behind Castle Hall, a short distance from the modern castle.
In Railway Street can be found the oldest purpose-built Quaker Meeting House in the world, in use since 1670. The Hertford Corn Exchange was built on the site of a former gaol. Hertford Museum is housed in a 17th-century historic town house, with a Jacobean-style knot garden. A stained-glass window in St Andrew's Church is part of a fringe theory that links Hertford to the Knights Templar and the Holy Grail.
Hertford serves as a commuter town for London, and has two stations. Hertford East (on the Hertford East Branch Line). Hertford North (on the Hertford Loop Line) . Hertford also lies just west of the A10 and the Kingsmead Viaduct which links it south to London and the M25 and north to Royston and Cambridge.

Museums at Night at Hertford Museum 14th May 2016
Artist Sarah Evans' beautiful animation Arecibo B with live improvised soundtrack from The McKenzie Break.
Arecibo B takes its title from The Arecibo message which was broadcast into space a single time via frequency modulated radio waves at the Arecibo radio telescope in Puerto Rico on 16 November 1974.
The narrative of the performance is call and response and the musicians are asked to observe the motion of the animation and respond both to the moving images as well as each other. The performance intends to place attention on the close observation of the musicians as they find the synergies between instruments and image.
