A short history of Hoddesdon
The name Hoddesdon is thought to join a Saxon or Danish personal name to an Old English word for a down or hill. The Domesday Book places it within the hundred of Hertford. Robert Boxe, lord of the manor, was granted a market charter in 1253. By the 14th century a hospital of St Laud and St Anthony stood in the south. A licence of 1336 let William de la Marche put up St Katharine's Chapel, which pilgrims travelling to Walsingham used. In 1567 Sir William Cecil gained the manor of Hoddesdonsbury. Sir Marmaduke Rawdon built Rawdon House in 1622. The Rye House Plot of 1683 against Charles II took its name from Rye House. A chapel of ease dedicated to St Paul followed in 1732. William Christie founded a brewery in 1803 that ran until 1928. St Paul's became the parish church in 1844 and a pleasure garden opened at Rye House in 1870. The area around the centre has 89 listed buildings, with the Parish Church of St Augustine at Grade I.
