Jersey Farm
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Jersey Farm is a district of St Albans situated approximately 2 miles north-east of the city centre. It is largely surrounded by countryside and is 'attached' to St Albans by the district of Marshalswick to its south-west.
The area was developed as a residential estate in the 1970s, and as such many of the properties are more modern than in the city centre. Local amenities include pubs, small shops and a community centre.
Jersey Farm has one pub, The Blackberry Jack, which is renowned for its reasonable prices and regularity of Guard.
As well as the pub, there is a branch of Tesco Express (including a post office), a pharmacy, a beauty salon 'The Beauty Rooms', a cycling store 'St Albans Cycles', an Indian Restaurant 'Bengal Spice', and a hair salon 'Ro Ko Ko'. The local secondary school is Sandringham.
