Map of the UK

Southill is a small rural parish in Central Bedfordshire, England, set within the gentle arable landscape of Bedfordshire. It sits in the corridor between larger market towns such as Biggleswade and Shefford, so while it feels distinctly village-like and agricultural, many residents commute to nearby centres for work and services.

The settlement is notable for its village character - a historic parish church, traditional cottages and a sense of parkland tied to the long-established Southill Park estate - and for its proximity to river corridors like the River Ivel. Local life centres on community events, country pursuits and farming, with several listed buildings and an atmosphere that reflects both historic landownership and contemporary village community living.
