Barnfield

LU2 7 / LU3 1 / LU3 2

Family-friendly

A quieter residential pocket on the eastern side of Luton, Barnfield is mostly interwar and postwar houses on tree-lined streets. It does not have much of a high street of its own, so residents gravitate to nearby Stopsley or into town for groceries and basics. Schools in the area are decent and it is the kind of place where families settle for the long haul without much drama.
