This brand new development of trad style brick terrace housing is on a site formerly called Arm & Sword Yard, after a pub. Here is a link to a local paper's report on the building work.http://www.stalbansreview.co.uk/news/hatfield/hatfield_news/10138326.Olde_Hatfield_Transformation_Continues/ It contains this story about the Borough Council objecting to the street name on the grounds it could be mistaken for "Almond Sword". Err....?? Really...??
