Brief history
The area around Biggleswade is thought to have been inhabited from around 10,000bc with arrowheads dating from this period found in the region. In Roman times, a loop road known as the White Way passed through Biggleswade . the name Biggleswade is thought to be derived from Biceil, an Anglo Saxon personal name and Waed, the Saxon word for ‘ford’.
The town is mentioned twice in the diaries of Samual Peeps. On 22 July 1661, Pepys stopped off in Biggleswade (called ‘Bigglesworth’ by Pepys) to buy a pair of warm woollen stockings.
In 1785, there was a large fire in the town. The fire started at the ‘The Crown’ inn and spread rapidly through the neighbouring streets. By the time the fire had been brought under control, nearly one third of the town had been destroyed. A national appeal was launched to raise funds for the many people who had lost their homes and their livelihoods.
The Great Northen Railway opened in 1850, and Biggleswade was the first town in Bedfordshire to have a mainline station.
Biggleswade traditionally has been a vegetable & produce growing area with trains often taking daily loads of vegetables to London's produce markets. Even though much of this has now stopped, Bedfordshire Growers based on the outskirts of the town still supply major supermarkets including Sainsbury's with the majority of their UK grown potatoes and onions.
Biggleswade is also the base of the Jordan's cereals business which supply animal feeds but also produce their own brand breakfast Muesli and cereal bars which are sold worldwide. There is also a Felix Cat food factory located in the town.
Other goods which have been made in Biggleswade include Berkeley Caravans and Sportscars who had a factory in the town, which was later used by Kayser Bondor who made ladies' underwear and stockings in the town until the mid 1990s. The factory was demolished and is now a housing estate, with roads named Berkeley Close and Kayser Court after the businesses that used the factory.
The town had a large brewery in the town centre for many decades: its last owners were Greene King but they closed it down in October 1997 and the site is now occupied by a ASDA supermarket.
