Big bad al off here lives near there I think?


Im based two minutes down the road, But dont really know the area...

Oakham, which is 2 minutes down the road, is a good quiet place, So I would imagine that Stamford is..

yep i live near Stamford its about an hour and 15 mins from Luton Airport

the only area to stay away from is Lambert Walk its a right shit hole full of chavs

its a good town with a Friday Street market couple of nightclubs and loads of pubs and bars plus its a stones throw from the A1

Its a nice area mate.its a part of the country that isnt yet overcrowded on the roads as well.i think the house prices are a little dearer than the surrounding villages/towns because its considered to be a desireable place to live. not as expensive as london by far.

I live in werrington peterborough just down the road from stamford - always drive through it always seems a nice place.

not sure where youre from at moment it is pretty quiet a country area.


think stanstead is actually closest airport - also east midlands aint that far but doesnt fly too many out of it.
