Meriden

Family-friendly

Meriden is a ward name covering the area around Watford Fields and towards the eastern edge of the town. It's a residential patch of mostly Victorian and Edwardian terraces that bleeds into the town centre at one end. Watford Fields is a useful local green space. It's close enough to walk to the station and the shops, which makes it practical without being especially distinctive.
