	Introducing Biggleswade (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-09)
		A town of some 17,000 inhabitants in the county of Bedfordshire, Biggleswade stands on the River Ivel some twelve miles east of Bedford and not far from the Hertfordshire border.
		In later years the River Ivel was made navigable and waterborne trade added to the town's prosperity although this was largely ousted by the building of the Kings Cross to York and Edinburgh railway, a route on which Biggleswade had its own station which was opened in 1850.
		The River Ivel is now an angling and pleasure river; the Great North Road by-passes the town centre and the main rail route, now electrified, no longer conveys vegetables from the market gardens around Biggleswade to the London markets.
