Battlesden is a hamlet and civil parish in the Mid Bedfordshire district of Bedfordshire, England. It is just north of the A5, between Dunstable and Milton Keynes. According to the 2001 census, it had a population of 38. Because of its low electorate, it has a parish meeting rather than a parish council.[1]

The parish is the site of Battlesden House.

[edit] Battlesden Church

The church at Battlesden is believed to be haunted by a lay friar.[2]
