Map of the UK

Welwyn East is a ward within the borough of Welwyn Hatfield in Hertfordshire, England, covering the eastern side of the historic settlement of Welwyn and some adjoining suburban streets and green-belt countryside. It combines predominantly residential neighbourhoods with small local shops and community facilities, while the nearby River Mimram and surrounding fields lend a more rural feel than inner-urban parts of the borough. Locally there is a quiet village-centre character, occasional community events and historic features such as the medieval church in Welwyn, so the ward sits comfortably between commuter convenience and traditional Hertfordshire village life.
