Once development is completed at Land South of Stotfold and Fairfield Park, Stotfold will be the second largest settlement in Central Bedfordshire (North) area. Unlike other settlements of its size, Stotfold does not have a recognised town centre and lacks service and employment provision. Additional shops, services and employment land are however being pursued in association with the development at Land South of Stotfold. New allocations are made for an additional 150-250 new homes and employment land that will be brought forward towards the end of the plan period.
