Kimpton is a small village and civil parish in North Hertfordshire, Hertfordshire, England, set in rolling countryside a few miles east of Hitchin. The landscape is typical of north Hertfordshire with farmland, hedgerows and small woods, and the village contains a number of historic buildings and older houses that hint at its long rural past.
Today Kimpton combines agricultural activity with a largely residential community whose many residents commute to nearby towns and London. Locally there’s an active village life centred on the hall, pubs and sports clubs, with regular events and conservation-minded projects that keep the social and historic character of the place visible.
