HenlowThe town of Henlow serves nearby Biggleswade as a residential centre for married RAF servicemen. Apart from this airforce association, the town has several attractive older buildings, notably Henlow Grange, set in almost 30 acres of parkland on the River Ivel. The house was built about 1700, but the site was once used for a Cistercian monastery. The church is largely 13th century, with the addition of a later tower.
