Bushey St. James is a residential ward in the town of Bushey, within the borough of Hertsmere in Hertfordshire, England. Sitting on the north-west fringe of London and close to Watford, it has a suburban, commuter character with a mix of Victorian and interwar housing, local shops and parks that give it a village-like feel despite good rail and road links into the capital.
The ward carries a dose of local history and culture - Bushey attracted artists in the Victorian era (notably Sir Hubert von Herkomer), and conservation areas and period buildings survive alongside newer development. Community life revolves around parish churches, halls and the high street, with active residents’ groups and green spaces shaping a fairly stable, generally prosperous neighbourhood within the outer London commuter belt.
