London Colney is a suburban ward and village just to the north-east of St. Albans in Hertfordshire, England, sitting close to major routes such as the M25 and the A1081. The settlement takes its name from the nearby River Colne and combines residential streets with pockets of light industry and retail, serving largely as a commuter community for the wider Home Counties and London area.
Despite its modern commuter character, London Colney sits amid a very historic landscape - St Albans' Roman town of Verulamium and the medieval St Albans Cathedral are close by - and it hosts notable local employers and facilities, including a high-profile professional football training centre used by Arsenal, which gives the area an unexpected sporting profile alongside longstanding village clubs and amenities.
