Buntingford is a small market town and electoral ward in East Hertfordshire, Hertfordshire, England. Set on the River Rib, it has a well-preserved high street with timber-framed and listed buildings that hint at its medieval and coaching-era past, and is surrounded by rolling arable countryside which gives it a pleasant riverside setting as a local centre for nearby villages.
Today Buntingford functions as a local shopping and service hub with independent shops, pubs and community facilities, and many residents commute to nearby towns and London. It retains a strong community spirit through regular markets, clubs and seasonal events, and its historic character and rural location make it popular with families and people seeking a quieter base within easy reach of larger centres.
