About

Ely North ward covers the northern portion of the city of Ely, stretching from the immediate outskirts of the historic centre towards more open, fenland landscapes. The area includes residential neighbourhoods, local shopping parades, and several schools, serving as a primary living area for the city. The ward is defined by the River Great Ouse, which forms a significant part of its western boundary.

A notable feature is the presence of the Ely Port, a functioning inland harbour on the river that handles agricultural and bulk materials. This blend of active port infrastructure with residential areas characterises the ward. Land use includes industrial estates alongside playing fields and areas of open space, reflecting its position between the urban core and the wider, flat agricultural countryside of the Fens.
