Bovingdon Market has confirmed its final day of trading at Bovingdon Airfield will be August 29. However, operators say they are hoping to find a new location that will keep the market running beyond that date.

ITV Studios Bovingdon is a very large, purpose built filming stage with unusually generous clearance height, concrete floor capable of bearing significant load and exceptionally large external space. It comes with a Production Office, Dressing Rooms, Makeup & Hair Room along with Medical Rooms. Mains power of 1.25MW is available plus a 1/Gbs Fibre connection provided by NEP Connect who can provide HD-SDI transmission circuits via BT Tower using this circuit.

Pedestrian Crossing on Chesham Road

The Parish Council is aware of the situation with the removal of the pedestrian crossing on Chesham Road and we are currently in discussion with Dacorum Borough Council and Herts County Council regarding this matter.  We have been informed by Herts County Council  that before the permanent signals can be commissioned and turned on, the contractor needs to complete the road surfacing and line marking.  These works will need to be done under a road closure and this is being organised for the 28 and 29 October and the permanent signals will be operating from the end of October.
