Hertford Hundred lies in the valley of the [River] Lea, for the most part to the south of the borough of Hertford, which it almost encircles. Little is known of the spot where the courts were held, but it was apparently customary for the sheriff's tourn to be held at Ware Bridge in the 14th century. The hundred adjoins the counties of Essex and Middlesex on the east and south respectively.
