Buntingford in East Hertfordshire, Hertfordshire, England is a small historic market town set on the valley of the River Rib. It has a compact, attractive high street of period buildings, independent shops and antique dealers, and a strong sense of a rural market-town community surrounded by farmland and rolling Hertfordshire countryside.
With medieval origins and a long market tradition, the town retains a conservation-area feel and traces of its past as a coaching stop; a local branch railway closed in the 1960s. Today it combines local agriculture, small businesses and a commuter population, with good road links via the A10 into London and the wider region, plus a steady programme of community events and country pursuits nearby.
