Great Munden is a small, quietly rural parish in the district of East Hertfordshire, in the county of Hertfordshire. Set among rolling arable fields and pockets of woodland, it sits close to the upper reaches of the River Rib and is characterised by winding country lanes, farmsteads and a scattering of historic houses and cottages.
Historically an agricultural community centred on a small parish church and manorial estates, the village today retains a low population and a strong village feel; local life revolves around farming, occasional community events and use of nearby market towns for services. Its quiet lanes and countryside make it popular with walkers and cyclists, while towns such as Ware and Hertford provide rail links and shopping within easy reach.
