The Hiz finally meets the River Ivel near the village of Henlow.

[citation needed] The Hiz is a focal point in the town of Hitchin, with a market that takes place historically by its banks.

[citation needed] Although small, the Hiz attracts a great deal of wildlife.

[2] Norden [3] says the name is derived from a wood called Hitch, but Ekwall believes this is a conflation with Wychwood, for which the Old English is Hwiccawudu.
