New Site Name

We have undertaken an engagement exercise to consider options for a new name for the Great Barford West allocation. At the Great Barford Fun Day event, the local community suggested that the allocated development should have a more inclusive name to strengthen the connection with Great Barford.

The land to the west of the village was historically known as Mill Field and “End” is a common regional suffix for an extension to a settlement. Therefore, we have decided that renaming the site Millfield End is a fitting name to reflect the site’s history, heritage and rural setting, whilst linking with the local area by using the common suffix. This also ties the site with the historic Green End Farm located to the north of the site.
