  Welwyn Garden City - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Welwyn Garden City is a town (not a city) in Hertfordshire, England.
Welwyn Garden City, as its name suggests, is a garden city, founded by Sir Ebenezer Howard in the 1920s following his previous experiments in Hampstead Garden Suburb and Letchworth Garden City, and designed by Louis de Soissons.
Welwyn Garden City is well known by avid readers of the side of breakfast cereal boxes in Britain as the town where Shredded Wheat and Shreddies are made, at the former Nabisco factory (now part of Nestlé).

 David James (footballer) - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Born in Welwyn Garden City, James signed as a trainee with Watford in 1989.
After conceding all four goals during a 4-1 drubbing England suffered at the hands of Denmark during a summer friendly on 17 August 2005 - resulting in their worst defeat in 25 years - James was displaced by Robinson as England's #1 keeper.
However, James is still part of the England squad, as he was selected as the second-choice goalkeeper behind Robinson for the 2006 World Cup in Germany but didn't play in any of the matches.
