Hermitage Road was cut in 1874 to allow better access to the railway station.
Windmill Hill, at the end of the road affords an excellent view of Hitchin from the
top.
The hill is (predictably enough) named after the windmill which was sited here until it burned down in 1875.
Two features of the road which are worthy of mention are 
Parc Computers & the Khana Stan.
The former sells computer
equipment & might give us some money off if we plug them hard enough; the latter is
perhaps the best curry house in miles.
