The Orchard & Anvil
In Nightingale Road, Hitchin. In 2007 an hour's extension was sought and approved but this doesn't appear to have saved the pub as it is now closed and boarded.

Hitchin: The former Orchard and Anvil public house
21 months on from OLU's Image and the building still survives.
This 1840s building was formerly The Woolpack and the yard behind was the location of a small forge, hence the modern re-branding. The 1884 Ordnance Survey map shows a substantial area of orchards on the opposite side of Nightingale Road facing the pub, between the present-day Grove Road and Florence Street, and this probably accounts for the other half of the name.
A planning application has been made to demolish the pub and replace it with a block of flats. However the Hitchin Historical Society have made an eloquent and well-thought out plea http://www.hitchinhistoricals.org.uk/news/feb_2009.php to keep the building because of its historic value and prominent location.
The information that the pub was formerly called the Woolpack warranted a search into old Census records yet curiously a brief search showed no mention of a pub with either name. Perhaps it was called something else before the Woolpack.

Church of the Holy Saviour, Hitchin
The Church of the Holy Saviour was designed by William Butterfield (1814-1900) in his characteristic polychrome brickwork.
The church was in use that afternoon for a lecture hosted as part of the 2024 Hitchin Festival, hence the screen and projector in front of the nave altar.
