Get Baldock pros

Baldock is a historic market town inside the local government district of North Hertfordshire in the ceremonial county of Hertfordshire, England where the River Ivel rises. It is situated 33 miles (53 kilometres) north of London, and features a population of around 9900. Nearby towns include Royston towards the northeast, Letchworth and Hitchin to the southwest and Stevenage to the south. The modern layout of the town and several buildings in the centre date back to the sixteenth century, with the oldest dating back to the fourteenth century. The town thrived where the old Great North Road and the Icknield Way crossed. Despite the construction of the A1(M) motorway in 1963, which bypassed the town, and which was known as the Baldock Bypass for some years, it was still a major traffic bottleneck till March 2006, when a new bypass removed the A505 road, a part of the old Icknield Way to the east of Baldock. Since the 16th century, Baldock has been a centre for malting, subsequently becoming a regional brewing centre with no less than 3 big brewers still manufacturing at the end of the 19th century, in spite of a drop in demand for the kinds of beer made locally. The 1881 Census notes about 30 drinking establishments. Throughout the early 20th century, a sizeable number of pubs remained open, several of which were sustained by the adjacent and substantially bigger town of Letchworth, which had no alcohol retailers before 1958, and had only two pubs and one hotel bar till the mid-1990s. Its bigger population had for many years visited both Baldock and Hitchin for refreshment.
