About

Godmanchester lies directly south of Huntingdon, connected by a bridge over the River Great Ouse. The area's layout reflects its history as an important Roman settlement, with a street grid that still influences the town centre today. The river and several man-made lakes, or 'lagoons', shape the local landscape, providing spaces for walking and wildlife. Residential streets extend from the historic core, blending older properties with more recent developments.

The area is known for its extensive common land, including Port Holme Meadow, which is one of the largest water meadows in the UK. This open space is used for grazing and flood management, defining the town's rural edges. Local life centres on the high street and the parish church of St Mary's. The Chinese Bridge, a decorative wooden footbridge, offers a distinctive crossing to a nearby island in the river.
