About

Duxford ward encompasses the village of Duxford and its immediate rural surroundings in South Cambridgeshire. The area is defined by its proximity to the M11 motorway, which forms its western boundary, and the River Cam flowing to the east. Land use is primarily agricultural, with a mix of arable fields and pockets of woodland. The settlement itself is linear, following the historic course of the old London road.

The village is notably home to the Imperial War Museum Duxford, a major airfield and museum housed on a former Royal Air Force station. This significant site shapes part of the local landscape and economy. Beyond this, the area includes the residential core, the grounds of Duxford Chapel, a medieval building in the care of English Heritage, and the surrounding open farmland that extends towards the neighbouring village of Whittlesford.
