About

Stotfold sits on the River Ivel in Central Bedfordshire, with a compact town centre of shops, a parish church and a mix of housing. The river runs through the town and has a mill pond at Stotfold Watermill, a restored 19th-century flour mill that displays original milling machinery and a large water wheel. Paths follow the river banks and provide routes for walking and observing riverine wildlife, while green spaces and allotments sit close to the built-up area.

Local provision includes primary and secondary education, sports clubs and a community centre that hosts regular events. Small-scale industry and light employment are located near the town edge, with retail and services focused on the High Street. Transport links are road-based; the town is compact enough for short local journeys on foot or by bike, and the river and mill remain a focal point for community activity and heritage visits.
