London Colney is a village and civil parish on the eastern edge of St. Albans in Hertfordshire, England. It sits beside the River Colne and is conveniently close to major routes such as the M25 and A414, which makes it popular with commuters while retaining a mix of suburban streets and surrounding greenbelt farmland.
Locally there’s a blend of retail and light industry - including the Colney Fields Retail Park - alongside community amenities, pubs, schools and London Colney F.C.. The village’s character is shaped by its proximity to the historic Roman and medieval sites of Verulamium and St. Albans, giving it a quietly layered historic and social feel despite its transport links.
