Hertfordshire is a county in eastern England. It is bordered by Bedfordshire to the north, Cambridgeshire to the north-east, Essex to the east, Buckinghamshire to the west and Greater London to the south. The county town is Hertford. As of June 2014, the county has a population of 1,154,800[1] in an area of 634 square miles (1,640 km2).[2]

As of January 2016, there are 43 sites designated within this Area of Search, 36 of which have been designated for their biological interest and 7 for their geological interest.[3] In England the body responsible for designating SSSIs is Natural England, which chooses a site "because of its flora, fauna, or geological or physiographical features".[4]

The data in the table is taken from Natural England's website in the form of citation sheets for each SSSI.
