 Harpenden Encyclopedia Article @ Averted.net   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-12)
Harpenden grew out of Westminster Abbey's gradual clearing of woodland for farming and settlement within its Wheathampstead manor, granted by Edward the Confessor in 1060.
A first reference to a parish church is in 1221 (where it is referred to as Harpendene) so it is inferred that the town evidently grew up around then.
Harpenden's most prestigious contribution to history is Rothamsted Manor and Rothamsted Research (formerly Rothamsted Experimental Station and later the Institute of Arable Crops Research), a leading centre for agricultural research.

It is not beyond the realms of possibility that it was this early Roman infrastructure, which remaining through the centuries till the middle ages and beyond, actually formed the basis on which the manorial boundary of Market Oak was built.
