A pretty new club in the grand scheme of things, Biggleswade FC (as a senior side) were born as recently as 2016 and soon started moving up the ladder. After success in the Spartan South Midlands League straight off the bat, the club joined the Southern League in 2018. To start with, they also shared a ground with Biggleswade Town – their town and league mates. But that’d all change in summer 2021, however; Bedford Town becoming their new landlords.

Well, there’s not much to say that we haven’t already boxed off. The 2016-7 campaign saw the town get a third senior side when Biggleswade Town’s successful U18 side decided to go one step further. The other option was entering a U21 league, which boss Dave Northfield stated wasn’t “the right direction” for them. And so be it. The Spartan South Midlands League accepted their application; starting the next chapter in a story that isn’t entirely unlike the early days of Stevenage Borough.

Go north on the A1 to Sandy, before coming off to join the A603 for Bedford. Head through Moggerhanger and Willington. Just as you get to the junction for the Bedford bypass, you’ll find the ground on the right-hand side.

While there is a car park at the ground, it may be possible to grab a spot in the lay-by to the side of the A603. This is pretty big in size and is set back from the main road itself.
Station: BEDFORD

Use either bus #171 or #172 for Cardington Cross. The station is a fair old walk.
