About

Great Barford ward encompasses the village of Great Barford and surrounding rural areas, situated along the River Great Ouse northeast of Bedford town. The landscape is characterised by open farmland and riverside meadows, with the historic Barford Bridge, a multi-arched stone structure from the 15th century, serving as a central crossing point. The settlement pattern is predominantly low-density, with a mix of older cottages and newer residential developments clustered near the village centre.

The local economy includes small businesses and light industry, alongside significant agricultural activity. Community facilities revolve around the primary school, village hall, and parish church. The river and adjacent countryside provide a network of public footpaths, with the Ouse Valley Way long-distance trail passing through. The area's transport links are defined by the A421 road, which bypasses the village to the south.
