Hertford History walk......

went on the walk yeterday organised I believe by the Civic society and Museum and just want to say how informative it was. I thought I knew Hertford well but there are things I hadn't noticed in my 50 years.......not least the egyptian theme of the bulding housing the resturant in For Street ( Lussmanns? ) I think I remeber it being Bates old fashioned food shop! When in Hertford do stop and look up, it is amazing what you will see! Many congratulations to everyone involved.

What was said about the Lussman building? I understand that it's quite a significant frontage in the world of old and historic buildings.
