Riversmeet Villages Hidden Britain Centre
Situated in North East
Bedfordshire, this Hidden Britain Centre consists of six villages
along the valleys of the rivers Ouse and Ivel.
It is where the great skyscapes of East Anglia begin - a watery
place where the sounds of wildfowl are never far away. The villages
are linked by two long distance river bank footpaths - the Ouse
Valley and the Kingfisher Ways. Wildlife abounds and the walker
stands a good chance of seeing the halcyon flash of a kingfisher
and maybe even the elusive otter or barn owl.
There is also a vast array of buildings of interest to those with
a fondness for the built environment. The medieval bridge at Great
Barford, a church from the same era in Little Barford, the
Congregational Church in Tempsford, and Moggerhanger Park are just
some of the fine structures on offer at this Hidden Britain
centre.
The nearest station to this Hidden Britain Centre is Bedford St
Johns. Directions are given below.
