Welcome to Stewartby

Stewartby is a small village located in the county of Bedfordshire, England. The village is situated on the outskirts of Bedford and is known for its rich industrial history. The village was established in the early 20th century as a result of the construction of the Stewartby brickworks, which was one of the largest brickworks in the world at the time. The brickworks provided employment opportunities for the local community and played a significant role in the development of the village.

Stewartby is also home to the Stewartby Lake, which is a popular destination for outdoor enthusiasts. The lake was created in the 1930s as a result of the excavation of clay for the brickworks. Today, the lake is a haven for wildlife and is a popular spot for fishing, sailing, and birdwatching. The lake is surrounded by beautiful countryside and is a great place to relax and unwind.

In recent years, Stewartby has undergone significant changes, with the closure of the brickworks and the redevelopment of the site. The village has seen the construction of new housing developments and the establishment of new businesses. Despite these changes, Stewartby has managed to retain its unique character and charm, and remains a popular destination for visitors to Bedfordshire.
