Sherrards is an electoral ward within the borough of Welwyn Hatfield in Hertfordshire, England. It sits on the suburban edge of Welwyn Garden City and combines typical garden‑city era housing with semi‑rural fringes, so residents enjoy a mix of tree‑lined streets, post‑war estates and pockets of greenbelt countryside.
The ward is notable for easy access to local green spaces such as Sherrardspark Wood, popular for walking and cycling, and for its commuter profile with many people working in London or nearby business parks. Socially it has a community‑orientated feel with local shops, schools and village events, and its identity is shaped by the wider historic influence of the Garden City movement and neighbouring Hertfordshire villages.
