Moggerhanger is a small village and civil parish in Central Bedfordshire, England, lying a few miles north‑west of Bedford and close to the market town of Sandy. Set in gently rolling Bedfordshire countryside by the River Ivel, it has a quiet, rural character with scattered farms and a modest village community rather than a dense settlement.
The parish is best known for Moggerhanger House, a Grade I listed Georgian country house remodelled by Sir John Soane and notable for its refined interiors and recent careful restoration. Local life is shaped by agriculture and the historic estate, with village facilities, a church and community activities; good road and rail links to nearby towns mean it combines a rural feel with reasonable access to services and commuter routes such as the A1.
