Archaeology has shown that Ware has been occupied since at least the Mesolithic period. The Romans had a sizable settlement here and foundations of several buildings, including a temple, and two cemeteries have been found. A well-preserved Roman skeleton of a teenage girl has also been found. Ware was on Ermine Street, the Roman road from London to Lincoln. It has been said that Ware is one of the oldest continuously occupied sites in Europe. The modern name of the town dates from the Anglo-Saxon period when weirs were built to stop the invading Vikings from escaping in their longships after defeat by Alfred the Great in a battle near Ware. It was also a great coaching town, being on the Old North Road, less than a day's journey from London. In the seventeenth century Ware became the source of the New River, constructed to bring fresh water to London.

 

"For me it was my health problems that gave me the motivation to stop but I lacked willpower but not for long, John gave me an inner strength to stop smoking as soon as I left his office. Thanks John."

"I think I was a special case, I had a few more issues with regards to stopping smoking. It took over 2 hours to finally get the result we needed. I could not believe the result, no cigarettes again, I thought I was stuck with that horrible habit but John did it in 1 session, thanks a life saver."
