Have You Considered The Gorgeous Surroundings Of Apsley For Your 2019 Nuptials?

1. Have You Considered The Gorgeous Surroundings Of Apsley For Your 2019 Nuptials? To say that the Hertfordshire suburb of Apsley is rich in both natural beauty and industrial history would be quite the understatement. However, to uncover just why there remains such strong demand for Wedding Venues In Apsley today, one needs to investigate a little deeper. While Apsley is now officially a suburb of Hemel Hempstead and is home to many London commuters around its canal area, it was during its time as a mill village in the 19th century that it can be said to have truly changed the world. A glorious past... While the name Apsley is Anglo-Saxon in origin – meaning aspen wood – its most triumphant and influential period in English history can undoubtedly be said to have been the 19th century. Following the construction of a trunk canal – later to be known as the Grand Union Canal – through the valley between London and the Midlands in 1798, paper began to be made in nearby Frogmore, prior to John Dickinson (1782-1869) purchasing a corn mill here for papermaking use in 1809. Dickinson was the inventor of a continuous mechanised papermaking process, and the story of his business came to be finely intertwined with that of Shendish Manor. Indeed, a partner to John Dickinson – Charles Longman, of the famous publishing family – acquired the Shendish Manor estate in 1853, and duly constructed our impressive manor house. Fast-forward to 1936, and the link between Shendish and Dickinson was reaffirmed when the late, great man’s company – John Dickinson Stationery Limited – bought the

In 1994, Shendish Manor became the hotel and events venue that it has remained ever since. ...and a signpost to your own glorious future What relevance does all of the above have to your own special day?
