Stevenage’s history stretches back, from Roman farmsteads and medieval manor houses to Britain's first New Town in 1946. Whether you’re seeing the snowdrops at Benington Lordship Gardens, stopping by the Twin Foxes in Monks Wood, or finding interesting places like the Jacobean walls of the Cromwell Hotel, there’s always something to learn.
The challenge? Local events and places can get lost in social media. You’re busy, and endlessly scrolling isn’t the best use of your time.
That’s why The City Brief exists. Each week, we highlight Stevenage’s best, the places, events, and stories that matter to you. No hype. Just your city, delivered to your inbox.
