Broxbourne, Administrative district in Hertfordshire, England
The Borough of Broxbourne encompasses 20 square miles of territory in southeastern Hertfordshire, bordered by the River Lea on its eastern edge.
The Borough of Broxbourne formed in 1974 through the merger of Cheshunt and Hoddesdon Urban Districts, deriving its name from the Old English term for badger stream.
The district maintains strong connections with London while preserving extensive woodland areas and participating in the Metropolitan Green Belt conservation program.
The Borough Council, headquartered in Cheshunt, operates through 30 councilors across ten wards, managing local services alongside Hertfordshire County Council.
The territory contains sections of the Lee Valley Park, combining urban developments in the east with substantial rural woodland areas in the western region.
