Description Incorrect Description? Tell Us!Eversholt is a village in Bedfordshire, England. It was mentioned in the Domesday Book and is over 1000 years old. "Eversholt" comes from Anglo-Saxon meaning "wood of the wild boar".

For many years, most of the land in the village was owned by the Dukes of Bedford, and most of the inhabitants worked on the Bedford estate. The estate still forms an important, although lesser, part of village life.

Most of the land is used for agriculture. There are about a dozen small businesses operating in converted farm buildings. The current population is about 420. The last shop in the village closed in 1994.

The Church of Saint John the Baptist was originally built at the centre of the village in the twelfth century CE, and is still used regularly. There is a modern village hall, a swimming pool, and a pub, the Green Man. The village cricket club plays matches every week in summer. There is a school for children from 5 to 7 years old, with over 100 pupils from the village and surrounding area.

The Eversholt Village Charity has been operating for at least 200 years. It owns some properties in the village, and distributes income annually to students, pensioners and to the church.
