Bovingdon · family
A recreation ground, a market, XC Extreme, and Little Hay next door.
Bovingdon is more practical than pretty. Children seem to prefer that.
Airfield winds are real. Bring a coat even in May.
A day that survives rain, a budget, and a child who is finished 40 minutes early.

01
Chesham Road / airfield, Bovingdon · Bovingdon
The market is Bovingdon’s export. Go for stalls, not for a curated food-hall narrative. Cash still helps. The village high street takes the overflow of people who also needed a chemist.
02
Bovingdon / Hemel west · Bovingdon
Part of Dacorum’s unofficial outdoor circuit with Little Hay and the Snow Centre. Book ahead for groups. It is a birthday venue as much as an adventure centre.

Planning
The developer presented land off Homefield to Bovingdon’s planning committee in June. Grange Farm is already discharging conditions on Green Lane. This serial will be filed from the register, not from other papers.

Business
Before the retail parks, before the online van, there was a field on the airfield road. It is still there.
