Bishop's Stortford South covers the southern neighbourhoods of the market town of Bishop's Stortford in East Hertfordshire, Hertfordshire, England. It sits close to the town’s historic core by the River Stort and combines suburban housing with pockets of newer development, making it a typical commuter-friendly part of the London commuter belt with easy access to the M11, rail links into London and nearby Stansted Airport.
Locally the area benefits from the shops, cafes and cultural offerings of the town centre - including venues such as the Rhodes Arts Centre - while neighbourhood parks, schools and community groups give it a family-oriented feel. Economically it leans on retail and services and the large commuter population, yet you can still find traces of the town’s market-town history in nearby streets and buildings.
