About Bishop's Stortford:

The ancient town of Bishops Stortford has a long and interesting history. Evidence has been discovered that proves Man inhabited the region 250,000 years ago during a warm period of the ice age. In 1060 the town and its castle were sold to the Bishops of London and it was then known as "Bishops Estereferd " and eventually Bishop's Stortford.

It developed as a thriving market town during the Middle Ages and had a population of over 2,000 by the year 1800. It became a staging post on the mail coach routes between London and Cambridge and London and Newmarket. It is famed for it's hostels of which a large number still exist today.

The town of Stortford took its origin from and has developed around the Ford over the river which is known as the Stort. Stortford is not as some people believe, named after the river in fact, probably the river is named after the town. It is believed that the name "Stort" has derived from a family or clan called "Steorta" who lived and ruled the vicinity of Stort during Saxon times.

In the 13th century the town became a pawn in various disputes between the King and the Pope, the King ceased the town from the Bishop and ordered the destruction of the castle in 1208, although later in 1214 he had to pay for it to be rebuilt.
