St James' parish church, High Wych
By Martin Addison
High Wych, a charming village in Hertfordshire, offers a mix of period cottages, traditional family homes, and more modern properties. Older homes, particularly those along well-established roads such as High Wych Lane, Slough Road, and Gilston Lane, may present challenges such as damp, aging roof structures, or the need for updates to plumbing and electrical systems. Meanwhile, newer properties in and around the village provide modern living while maintaining a rural charm. With its picturesque countryside setting, proximity to Sawbridgeworth and Bishop’s Stortford, and easy access to transport links such as the M11 and train services to London, High Wych offers a perfect blend of village tranquillity and commuter convenience, making it a sought-after location for families and professionals alike.
