About

Bottisham ward encompasses the village of Bottisham itself along with the smaller settlement of Lode. The area lies on the edge of the Cambridgeshire Fens, giving the landscape a notably flat and open character, with wide agricultural fields. The ward is bisected by the busy A1303 road, which connects Cambridge to Newmarket, influencing local traffic patterns.

A key historical feature is the former Bottisham Airfield, which played a significant role during the Second World War and has since been largely returned to farmland. The village is centred around a traditional green and is home to the Bottisham Village College, a notable early example of a village college within the county's educational system. Residential areas consist primarily of housing from the 20th century, expanding outwards from the older core.
