Colney Heath is a large village south-east of St Albans, Hertfordshire.
Colney Heath has been the focus of growth since before the war. It was once a mere hamlet but was substantially developed; before 1947 it was part of the "St Peter Rural" civil parish but in that year the two newly grown villages of Colney Heath and London Colney each split off to form their own parishes.
There is a converted windmill in the village.
