Fascinating local history
Biggleswade holds a weekly market which dates back to the 12th century. However, it wasn't until 1227 that it was granted full market town status by King Henry III. The Charter Market runs on Saturdays, with an array of stalls ranging from varying fresh food stalls, Cards & Gift Wrap, Haberdashery, Plants & Shrubs, Gifts & Ornaments, Children's Clothing and Household Items to name but a few.
Did you know?
On June 16, 1785, the Great Fire started at the Crown Inn and spread rapidly, destroying almost one-third of the town. In response, a national appeal was launched, raising funds for 332 residents who lost their homes and others who lost their livelihoods.
The area around Biggleswade is thought to have been inhabited from approximately 10,000 BC as arrowheads believed to date back to this period have been found.
A medieval bridge, first documented in the early 13th century, provided a route for the Great North Road over the River Ivel at Biggleswade.
