Letchworth Garden City, in Hertfordshire, had a population of around 34,000 at the 2021 census — the town that started a global planning movement.
The world's first Garden City
Letchworth was founded in 1903 as the world's first Garden City, built to Ebenezer Howard's vision of combining the best of town and country living — wide tree-lined streets, generous green space, and housing kept apart from industry. It became the working template for garden cities and new towns built across Britain and beyond through the rest of the 20th century.
What that history doesn't leave behind
Letchworth's planning legacy doesn't come with a dedicated sweet shop set up for bulk bags, vegan-specific ranges or halal-friendly lines — that's simply not the kind of retail a town this size tends to support locally.
Why Letchworth shoppers order online anyway
For anything past a corner-shop bag, ordering online and having it delivered is the more consistent option — no trip into Stevenage or Hitchin required.
