About

The Haddenham, Stretham and Witchford area lies west and south-west of Ely in East Cambridgeshire, set on drained fenland where a network of ditches and drains shapes the fields. Arable farmland and straight parish boundaries define much of the landscape, with the River Great Ouse running through Stretham and feeding the local drainage system. Small lanes connect the villages to each other and to Ely, and footpaths run along river banks and across reclaimed marshes used for crops and grazing.

Settlements include compact village centres with parish churches, shops and community halls serving local residents. In Stretham the riverside pumping engine built by Marshall, Sons & Co. stands beside the Great Ouse as a reminder of fen drainage work. Witchford occupies part of land used during the Second World War as an airfield, and the surviving hardstandings and industrial sites now sit alongside housing. Haddenham retains village-scale housing, allotments and local services that link the three communities to the surrounding agricultural economy.
