Below is a drone photograph of Northfields in Biggleswade from a property website. I think it’s a great image to show you the land north of Biggleswade stretching towards the green sand ridge in the distance. The railway line is to the left (west) and Furzenhall farm to the north. Somewhere on this land the bronze age cursus and ring ditches once stood. Was this street named for it being north of Biggleswade or because of Mrs Northfield who once owned land here?

Below is a photograph of Andy and Dolly on a boat. Andy’s cottage is now surrounded by streets of modern houses bult in the last 60 years.

Here’s the bill of sale of the cottages from the early 20th Century.

Below is a photo taken by Andy of one of the community walks he organises. This is taken along Furzenhall Road, again giving you a good idea of how flat and featurless the land is.

Furzenhall farm was featured in an issue of Horse and Hounds a couple of years ago so if you follow the link you can see the farm house both inside and out!
Here’s the information about the archeolgoical finds on the land north of Biggleswade.
