Abstract:		 It is now generally accepted that Bedford as a town originated in two burhs dating from the Saxon period, the earlier one to the north and the later one to the south of the river. This article discusses how the streets which still form the nucleus of modern Bedford relate to those burhs and also how the establishment of the burhs must have altered the pattern of the cross-country roads in the area. The name changes of these early streets are traced from the earliest recorded forms through to the names by which they are known today. Some explanation of these names is given where the meaning is not immediately obvious.
