Potton United FC WELCOME! Hadley v Potton United Spartan South Midlands League Premier Division Saturday 16th February 2019 3.00pm, Brickfield Lane Good afternoon and welcome to this afternoon’s Spartan South Midlands League Premier Division game against Potton United FC. We hope their players, officials and supporters have an enjoyable short stay with us and have a safe journey home later. We also extend a very warm welcome to our three match officials, Matthew Ball (Ref), Dani Mansour (Ass Ref) + Steve Williams (Ass Ref). Potton visit us today currently sitting in 5th place in the league. In our earlier meeting this season, we won 2-0, in a close fought game and today will be also be a tight affair. We come into the game, proudly sitting at the top of the table, for a third consecutive week. With Biggleswade FC losing on Wednesday night at Baldock, a win today, would keep us top, and there can be no better incentive for the boys today. In our last game, we progressed to the semi final of the Herts Charity Shield, following a very good 1-0 win away at Welwyn Garden City - Ibrahim Camara with the goal. I would like to wish good luck to both sides this afternoon and hope all of you enjoy the game and get behind the Bricks!

    Home Kelly's Trade Directory Biggleswade - 1898 I have transcribed the directory exactly as written, complete with abbreviations and punctuation that seem rather peculiar to us now. BIGGLESWADE is a market and union town, head of a petty sessional division and county court district, with a station on the Great Northern railway, 45 miles from London by the high road and 41 by rail 10½ south-east from Bedford and 11 north from Hitchin, in the Northern division of the county, hundred and rural deanery of Biggleswade, archdeaconry of Bedford and diocese of Ely, bordered on the west by the river Ivel, formerly navigable from its junction with the Ouse at Tempsford, about 4 miles distant, but in pursuance of the "Ivel Navigation Act" of 1876, the locks have been allowed to fall into disuse. The town was formerly governed by a Local Board, created by an Order of the Bedfordshire County Council, February, 22, 1892 but under the previous of the "Local Government Act, 1894" (56 & 57 Vict. ch. 73), it is now under control of an Urban District Council of 12 members; it is well lighted with gas supplied by a company, and water is obtained from springs in the neighbourhood. The church of St Andrew is an edifice of sandstone, in the Perpendicular style, consisting of chancel, clerestoried nave of four bays, aisles, south porch and an embattled western tower, rebuilt in 1720, and containing a clock and 5 bells : the chancel. rebuilt in 1467, by John Ruding, retains its piscina and sedilia for three priests, but the former has no basin and is now used as a credence table; a beautiful alter-piece, representing the "Last Supper", was presented by Charles Barnett esq.
