Riverside Road
Turn of the 19th/20th Century terraced housing on a road built on the line of a former footpath. Originally a cul-de-sac called Longmire Road, the current name first appeared on the 1972 1:1,250 map, when the road was extended westwards to meet Cottonmill Lane. These houses back onto former watercress beds alongside the River Ver. Note the ornate stone headers to the windows, unique on St Albans.

Sopwell Nunnery Green Space:
The value of wet woodland.
Also known as Carr Woodland this is an important and rare wet woodland habitat
in Hertfordshire.
The images in the middle show the following:
Clockwise from the bottom left: Banded Demoiselle damselfly, Common Frog,
Riverside Willow, Lesser Celandine and Pollarded Willow
These woodland types are dominated by mature Alder and Willow trees. Some of
these trees have been historically pollarded (the branches cut back so they
re-grow to provide material for baskets and fencing, amongst other things) and
they provide excellent habitats for wildlife such as woodpeckers, bats and
invertebrates.
