Royston, Market town in North Hertfordshire, England
The town extends across northern slopes of Hertfordshire Chalk Downs at the intersection of Ermine Street and Icknield Way ancient routes.
The settlement emerged from the crossing of two Roman military paths, receiving its name from Royse's Cross erected at their junction.
The Royston Arts Festival, initiated in 2007, brings together local artists, musicians, and performers throughout multiple venues in the town.
The Royston railway station provides direct train connections to London Kings Cross and Cambridge, making it suitable for commuters.
Beneath the town center lies Royston Cave, discovered in 1742, featuring medieval carvings carved into chalk walls.
