About codicote

Codicote is a large village, and civil parish about seven miles south of Hitchin in Hertfordshire, England. It has timber-framed and chequered brick houses, of special interest being the 18th-century Pond House and the half-timbered Taverners Place. Codicote Lodge is 18th-century and Codicote Bury 17th-century.

The pretty Hertfordshire village of Codicote has a history going back at least 1500 years but the earliest written reference to the village comes from the year 1002 when King Aethelred (Ethelred the Unready) sold the manor of 'Cuthingcoton' to one of his advisors, a man named Aelfelm.

Codicote is a delightful village, with over 70 listed buildings to explore. Many of the older buildings have blue plaques outlining the property's history.
The village name evolved during the Saxon period and refers to the 'cote', or cottage, of a man named Cudda.
