Welcome to Bletchley

Bletchley is a town located in Buckinghamshire, England. It is situated approximately 50 miles northwest of London and has a population of around 37,000 people. The town is known for its historical significance during World War II, as it was home to Bletchley Park, the site where codebreakers worked to decipher encrypted messages sent by the German military.

Bletchley Park is now a museum and heritage site, attracting visitors from all over the world. The site played a crucial role in the war effort, with codebreakers including Alan Turing and his team working tirelessly to crack the Enigma code used by the Germans. The work done at Bletchley Park is said to have shortened the war by two years and saved countless lives. Today, visitors can explore the site and learn about the history of codebreaking, as well as the personal stories of those who worked at Bletchley Park.

Aside from its historical significance, Bletchley is also a thriving town with a range of amenities and attractions. The town centre has a variety of shops, restaurants and cafes, as well as a cinema and leisure centre. There are also several parks and green spaces in the area, including the Blue Lagoon Nature Reserve and the Ouzel Valley Park. Bletchley is well-connected to other towns and cities in the region, with good transport links to London and beyond.
