A thriving, smart and socially-minded Herts town, Bishop's Stortford is ideally placed town for the commuter, just 40 miles north east of London, offering a wonderful combination of metropolitan living with surrounding rural countryside. It attracts movers, predominantly from London, looking for that quality of life, reassessing their home, health, family, community, schools and environment but still living within easy reach of the capital. The town itself provides a range of comprehensive shopping with a mix of High Street brands alongside smaller independent outlets, a variety of eateries , plus recreational facilities all located on one main long High Street. Bishop’s Stortford offers a real mix of period and modern properties. The north-west corner of the town, close to Bishop’s Stortford College, and the period houses close to the station are the most desirable, including the likes of Avenue Road, Grange Road, Maze Green Road and Dane O’Coys Road. To the west of town are The Hadham villages, to the north-west the Pelham villages with a charming mix of period houses and to the south east of town are The Matchings. Bishop’s Stortford has an excellent and wide choice of state and independent schools. Bishop’s Stortford College is located within the town and Hockerill Anglo-European College has been consistently ranked as one of the leading schools in the UK.

Broadband availability and predicted speed

Broadband speed is measured in megabits per second, with the number returned showing how fast the connection is. Each reading is based on the highest predicted speed of any major broadband network for services that deliver the download speeds. The following are the different readings that we may display:

Basic: Up to 30 Mbit/s
Super-fast: Between 30 Mbit/s and 300 Mbit/s
Ultra-fast: Over 300 Mbit/s

The data is updated three times a year. The checker results are predictions and should not be regarded as guaranteed. For more information, see: https://checker.ofcom.org.uk/en-gb/about-checker#Answer_0_2

Mobile phone signal availability and predicted strength

Mobile signal predictions are provided by the four UK mobile network operators: EE, O2, Three and Vodafone. Predictions can vary significantly from the coverage you may actually experience as a result of local factors (especially terrain). Ofcom has tested the actual coverage provided in various locations around the UK to help ensure that these predictions are reasonable. The values shown against a property can be broken down as follows:

Clear: No bars, no signal predicted
Red: One bar, reliable signal unlikely
Amber: Two bars, may experience problems with connectivity
Green: Three bars, likely to have good coverage and receive a data rate to support basic web services
Enhanced: Full bars, likely to have good coverage indoors and to receive an enhanced data rate to support multimedia services
