Royston Meridian is a ward within the market town of Royston in the district of North Hertfordshire, county of Hertfordshire, England. The name reflects the fact that the Greenwich meridian runs through the town, and the ward covers a mix of residential streets and the fringes of the town centre, with reasonably direct road and rail links making it a popular base for commuters to Cambridge and London.
The area combines the everyday amenities of a small town - local shops, schools and parks - with nearby historic curiosities such as Royston Cave and the long-established market tradition. Socially and economically it leans towards a commuter and service-led profile, while enjoying easy access to surrounding Hertfordshire and Cambridgeshire countryside for walking and community events.
