    Warden Road, Ickwell, Biggleswade, SG18 9EL Guide price £875,000 An extended and exceedingly spacious three bedroom detached residence (with planning consent for a fourth bedroom) sitting in a delightful plot of 0.34 of an acre overlooking fields to front and rear. This extended, spacious and partly thatched detached residence offers versatile accommodation which includes on the Ground Floor an entrance hall (approached through oak framed porch with oak front door), three reception rooms (plus an additional office off the garage/store), cloakroom, kitchen and utility room. Additionally a conservatory is located off the dining room and separated therefrom by oak framed and glazed sliding/folding doors that "disappear" into wall cavities at the sides thus opening up a total entertainment space some 40 feet long. The First Floor accommodates a landing, master bedroom with ensuite shower room, two further bedrooms (planning permission granted for a fourth bedroom) and a family bathroom. Externally the property overlooks parkland with mature trees etc to the front and with the rear garden facing south and overlooking paddocks and woodland. The plot extends to about a third of an acre. A generous gravelled driveway offers parking and gives approach to the garage/store. Planning consent exists for an additional double garage. A pedestrian side gate gives access to the rear garden with a natural stone patio area to the rear of the house and accessing the conservatory. The garden was landscaped by Graham Pavey some 15 years ago and is laid primarily to perennial shrubs and roses for ease of maintenance with sweeping lawn leading to a small circular terrace area for the last of the evening sun.

This would necessitate discontinuing the use of Ampthill Baptist Church. The ARO was asked to consider using the Town Ampthill Methodist Church Room, Council Chamber, 66 Dunstable Street, Ampthill AMP1-4 AMP4 Ampthill (part) 887 896 Chandos Road, Ampthill MK45 2JS as a polling station but the Methodist Church Room is more convenient for voters and has parking advantages.

  • Garden History at Bedfordshire & Luton Archives Service
    Researching Garden History at Bedfordshire & Luton Archives Service Flitwick botanic plant house, c.1838 (LL17/284) 1 Researching Garden History at Bedfordshire & Luton Archives Service If you are interested in researching the history of a Bedfordshire garden the Archive Service may be able to help. Maps and other documents held there can assist in the study of garden layout and planning, whilst bills, receipts, letters, illustrations and other documents may hint at the planting of a garden over time. The amount of material we have for a particular garden will vary from nothing at all to a great deal. This may be an accident of survival or of deposit, either records no longer exist for the property or rather than having been deposited with Bedfordshire archive service they are still held by the owners of the garden, relatives/descendants of the creators of the garden or in archive collections elsewhere in the world. For example the records for the Jekyll garden at The Old House, Ickwell are held be at University of California, Berkerley. http://www.ced.berkeley.edu/cedarchives/profiles/jekyll/ickwell.htm Where houses and gardens were occupied by tenants it is the tenants who would have kept records rather than the owners of the property and these records are less likely to survive. Before coming to the Archives Service • Walk the area if possible. Note bumps/depressions in lawns etc that might indicate previous features, such as flowerbeds and garden buildings that have been destroyed. Note also any mature planting and their species. The same planting patterns in different parts of an estate for example, may give a clue as to the dates the trees were put in.
