Description
Incorrect Description? Tell Us!
Arlesey is a small industrial town in the district of Mid Bedfordshire in Bedfordshire. It is located about four miles north of Hitchin and four miles south of Biggleswade. Arlesey railway station provides direct train services to London and Peterborough. Arlesey Town Football Club and Arlesey Athletic Football Club have their grounds to the south of the town.
The Domesday book mentions Arlesey as a market town.
St Peters Church, situated in the Church End part of the town, was built in the 11th century by the monks of Waltham Abbey.
Major employers in Arlesey used to be the Fairfield Hospital (now re-developed as housing) and the former brickworks (producers of the Arlesey Whites bricks seen in many local buildings). Some of the clay pits use by the brickworks are now lakes including the Blue Lagoon, which hosts fishing and sailing clubs. Although the lake is private large numbers of people go there to swim. There have been a number of drownings that have been reported in the national news. In 2001 three children died when the car they were in was accidentally driven into the lake. Most recently a teenager drowned whilst swimming in April 2007.
Gothic Mede Lower School has around 200 pupils aged 5 to 9. Younger children can attend the adjoining Arlesey Nursery School.
The Arlesey Bomb fishing weight was developed in the town.
