Box End (or Kempston Box End) is a village located in the Borough of Bedford in Bedfordshire, England. It is in the civil parish of Kempston Rural.
The settlement was historically one of the hamlets (or "Ends") of Kempston. Today, Box End forms part of the Kempston Rural civil parish.
One of the village's historic dwellings, known as Box End House, was home to Captain Thomas Carter who sailed to the American colonies in the mid-17th-century. Carter landed on the coast of what is now the state of Georgia and settled around what is now known as the city of Americus. One of Carter's direct descendants is former U.S. President Jimmy Carter.[citation needed]
Box End also has a family-owned watersports and activity leisure centre.[1]
Notable resident
Box End is the home of former Post Office Limited chief executive officer Paula Vennells, who lives in a Grade II listed property in the village.[2]
