From the Wikipedia article
Fairfield (originally known as Fairfield Park) is a village and civil parish located in the Central Bedfordshire district of Bedfordshire, England.

Background
History
The village was established in the early 2000s in the buildings and grounds of Fairfield Hospital, a defunct psychiatric hospital which closed in 1999. Today the village consists of some 900 Victorian inspired dwellings of different housing types and about 100 apartments in the former hospital building. Fairfield was originally intended to become a new village in its own right, although for the first few years it remained within the civil parish of Stotfold. However, on 1 April 2013 Fairfield became a separate civil parish, and elected its own parish council in May 2013.
