Bedford Leasing
Did You Know?Bedford is also a place to house hundred different South Asian communities including the largest Sikh Gurudwara (a temple or place of worship of Sikhs). Bedford is a historic market town in Bedfordshire, England, founded at a ford on the River Great Ouse and granted borough status in 1166. Known for its rich cultural diversity, including a large Italian population, it was a medieval center for wool, later lace, and is famous for the Cardington airship sheds, John Bunyan, and the biennial River Festival. It holds a record to have one of the largest Italian communities outside Italy. Historians say that most of the locals have an Italian descent which makes them as British-Italians. Bedford is one of the largest settlements supervised by the Borough of Bedford; it was also awarded the Charter status in 1166 by the King Henry II. Here’s a list of few exciting and familiar facts that most of the locals of Bedfordshire tend to either forget or don’t know as yet. It has an ancient history, and one could prove that by visiting the town to witness the historic Mi’kmaq petroglyphs that historians say is 500 hundred or more years old. Also, famous singers and musicians had also come to Bedford including Bing Crosby, Glenn Miller, and Humphrey Bogart. Bedford became an instant fame when several hotels were introduced to the public in the late 1800s. These hotels attracted thousands of people across Bedfordshire including hundreds of Haligonians who used to visit hotels in the summer. During the World War II, Bedford sheltered BBC music and various religious communities because London was the prominent target due to being the England’s capital and became very dangerous for locals to live in. Bedford in the UK began life as the first Saxon capital of England, and as one of the earliest shire towns in the country, it is unique in some respects. The historical roads have included the Great North Road, the Portway, the Chaucer Way, and later the Midland Railway and the M1.
