Nuthampstead is a very small, rural parish in North Hertfordshire, Hertfordshire, England, tucked into rolling arable countryside and small copses rather than a built-up area. Quiet lanes and farmland characterise the place; it sits within easy reach of larger market towns so many residents combine farming or local trades with commuting for work and services.
The parish is perhaps best known for the wartime landscape left behind by RAF Nuthampstead - the Second World War airfield whose concrete traces and a few surviving buildings can still be seen amid fields and are remembered by local memorials. Social life is that of a close-knit village community, centred on occasional local events and the shared rural economy rather than commercial activity.
