Knebworth is a village and ward in the district of North Hertfordshire, set in gently rolling Hertfordshire countryside just north of Stevenage and not far from Hitchin. It has good commuter links by rail from Knebworth railway station into London and road connections to the A1(M), sitting within a largely residential and agricultural landscape with a recognisable village centre and conservation areas.
The area is best known for Knebworth House, a historic country house and park that stages large concerts and draws tourists, giving the local economy a mix of tourism, farming and commuter-driven services. There is a strong village community around local shops, a primary school and St Mary's Church, and the ward balances its heritage attractions with the everyday needs of residents.
