About

The Denver ward encompasses a rural area south of Downham Market, centred around the village of Denver itself. It includes the smaller settlements of Fordham and Ryston, with much of the land given over to agricultural use. The ward is defined by the surrounding waterways, including the River Great Ouse and the parallel Relief Channel.

A key feature is the Denver Sluice complex, a major piece of flood defence and water management infrastructure controlling the flow between the rivers and the tidal Ouse. The surrounding landscape is characterised by low-lying fenland, with extensive drainage ditches and wide, open skies. The ward's history and economy are closely tied to the management of this waterlogged environment.
