Colesden, a quiet corner of Bedfordshire, retains a feeling of enduring peace. It lies 7.0 km south-west of St Neots (from St Neots: bearing 232°T, OS grid TL 129 558), and is situated west of Chawston village. The land here, a gentle expanse of arable fields, often catches the low afternoon sun, turning the cultivated earth to shades of ochre and rust. A faint scent of turned soil, carried on the breeze, is a constant reminder of the agricultural heart that beats within Colesden. The lanes, often bordered by hedgerows thick with hawthorn and bramble, lead one past farmsteads that seem to have grown organically from the landscape. The quietude of Colesden is broken only by the distant bleating of sheep or the low hum of machinery working the land.
