Welcome to Oxhey

Oxhey is a small village located in the county of Hertfordshire, England. It is situated between the towns of Watford and Bushey and is known for its peaceful and quiet atmosphere. The village has a rich history dating back to the 12th century when it was first mentioned in historical records. Today, Oxhey is a popular residential area with a mix of old and new properties, making it an attractive place to live for families and professionals alike.

One of the main attractions in Oxhey is the Oxhey Woods, a beautiful woodland area that covers over 100 acres. The woods are home to a variety of wildlife, including deer, foxes, and birds, making it a popular spot for nature lovers and walkers. The woods also have a rich history, with evidence of human activity dating back to the Bronze Age. Today, the woods are managed by the Woodland Trust and are open to the public all year round.

Another notable feature of Oxhey is its railway station, which provides easy access to London and other nearby towns. The station is located on the Watford DC Line and is served by London Overground trains. This makes Oxhey an ideal location for commuters who work in the city but prefer to live in a quieter, more rural area. Overall, Oxhey is a charming village with a rich history and plenty of natural beauty, making it a great place to visit or call home.
