'''Bedfordshire''' is a county of southern [[England]] lying between the [[Home Counties]] and the [[Midlands]] and bordered by [[Northamptonshire]], [[Cambridgeshire]], [[Hertfordshire]], [[Huntingdonshire]] and [[Buckinghamshire]]. The topography is mainly low-lying, with some [[fenland]] areas in the east of the county. The county town is [[Bedford]], home of [[John Bunyan]], but the main urban centre is the industrial and university town of [[Luton]]. Major industries include motor manufacture in Luton and brick manufacture in the north of the county; the need of the brick industry for labour led to the immigration of many people from [[Italy]] in the years following the [[Second World War]].
