About Shefford

The name Shefford evolved from Sheepford, reflecting the town’s agricultural basis, and centre of wool industry. The town crest makes the association abundantly clear by incorporating a sheep’s head in the design.

Three rivers run through the town, the Flit, the Hit and a navigation of the Ivel. These three waterways converge just east of the town’s High Street, which hosted Shefford’s market from 1225 until the present day, although it no longer exists for the purpose of selling sheep.

Hoo Hill Maze, just to the South East of Shefford is set in privately owned grounds within a small, secluded orchard. Over recent years, the team has created additional areas within the grounds, so there are places to play games, peaceful and reflective spaces to enjoy the natural surroundings. A continual programme of creative planting carries on throughout the year, providing a magical garden experience like no other.

In 2019, Shefford came second in a nationwide survey of Britain’s top small and medium sized towns to live in. Carried out by estate agents Hamptons International, the survey on behalf of the Daily Telegraph looked at numbers of independent shops and price growth in the area, and placed it only behind near neighbour Ampthill.
