Location
Someries District covers three major residential areas in Luton: from Bushmead to the
Airport taking in Stopsley, Hightown and Wigmore. (East of the A6 New Bedford
Road and the Lower Harpenden Road).
History
The Someries District was formed in 1967. Since then, as a result of re-organisation and changes in local needs,
two Groups have been closed and a third transferred to another Luton District. Meanwhile new Groups have been
opened and Someries District now has eight thriving Scout Groups, including an
Air Scouts Group. The District also has a strong Venture Scout Unit and an
equally active District Fellowship.
The District Badge
 Our badge shows
Someries Castle which is located just South of Luton and from it the District takes its
name. The castle is now a ruin, but well worth a visit (Ordnance Survey map ref. TL119201)
