Shortmead House, Georgian country house in Biggleswade, United Kingdom.

The two-storey manor house displays Georgian architectural elements with symmetrical windows, traditional stonework, and formal gardens surrounding the property.

First documented in 1543 as Shortmead Farm, the property underwent major reconstruction in the 1790s to become the current Georgian manor house.

The house maintains its role as a local heritage site while functioning as both a private residence and an authorized venue for civil wedding ceremonies.

Located near central Biggleswade, the property includes 24 acres of grounds with designated parking areas and spaces for outdoor events and ceremonies.

The estate houses protected Great Crested Newts and contains a Wollemi Pine, a rare tree species discovered in Australia during 1994.
