Broxbourne is a commuter town in Hertfordshire in the East of England with a population of approximately 13,300 in the 2001 Census. Broxbourne is twinned with the Sicilian city of Sutera. The name Broxbourne is thought to derive from the Old English words brocc and burna which means Badger stream. The Manor of Broxbourne is mentioned in the Domesday Book, which mentions Broxbourne Mill. The area was exploited for its gravel and sand extraction in the twentieth century, that came to an end when the mineral reserves ran out during the late 1960s leaving a myriad of water filled lakes. A number of the lakes are now a part of the Lee Valley Regional Park. While it has been urbanised by industrial and commercial manufacturing, the entire area preserves its rural character and is preferred by individuals commuting to London. The New River which passes through the town centre, was built in the early seventeenth century. Broxbourne railway station was established in 1840. A terracotta works was opened soon afterwards by James Pulham and Son, who specialised in developing artificial rock gardens; some of their work is preserved in the gardens at Sandringham House and Buckingham Palace.
