About

Bromham and Biddenham are neighbouring parishes situated on the western outskirts of Bedford, bordering the River Great Ouse. The area is characterised by a mix of residential development and open countryside, with the river providing a distinct boundary. Biddenham is noted for its historic village core and conservation area, featuring traditional thatched cottages and a medieval church. Bromham includes a larger village centre with local amenities and is known for its historic watermill and bridge, which are prominent local landmarks.

The landscape is largely defined by the river valley and its flood meadows, with several public footpaths and green spaces like Bromham Mill Meadows. The area maintains a semi-rural feel, with farmland separating the settlements from the main urban area of Bedford. The presence of the A428 road influences the area's connectivity. Local life centres around village institutions, including schools, churches, and community events, fostering a distinct parish identity separate from the nearby town.
