Elvira Henderson

Elvira’s is named after Elvira Henderson, the wife of Henry Henderson who built the original Henderson Hall over 100 years ago in her memory for the benefit of the people of Abbots Langley. Sadly, Elvira died in childbirth with her fifth child at the age of 31.  A photograph of Elvira takes pride of place in our coffee shop.
