New Road, Ware
New Road seen from its junction with East Street and with Musley Hill rising in the background. The spire on the right belongs to Christ Church.
The sign on the white building on the right is an amusing play on words: it reads "Ware House".

Place House, Bluecoat Yard
Place House was originally one of Ware's two mediaeval manor houses. In 1674 it was acquired by Christ's Hospital Foundation, who sent young children from London to live in healthy country air. The school, which had around 150 boys, was closed in 1791 and the boys transferred to Hertford, but the Foundation retained the buildings, which were let (including at one point, for a school). Place House was acquired by the Hertfordshire Building Preservation Trust in the early 1970s, and after extensive renovation was re-opened in 1978. It is now available to hire for club/society meetings, exhibitions, seminars, training days, workshops, fitness classes, craft fairs, family gatherings and social events http://placehousehall.org.websitebuilder.prositehosting.co.uk/ .
The building is Grade I listed http://list.english-heritage.org.uk/resultsingle.aspx?uid=1275417 .
