About

Huntingdon Central & West encompasses the historic core of the market town, centred on the pedestrianised High Street and the medieval bridge over the River Great Ouse. The area is characterised by a mix of Georgian and Victorian buildings housing independent shops, cafes, and local services. The Cromwell Museum, located in the former grammar school, is a focal point.

The western section extends towards Hinchingbrooke Country Park, a large area of lakes and meadows created from former gravel pits. The park provides extensive walking routes along the river and connects to the grounds of Hinchingbrooke House. This blend of a compact town centre with immediate access to open waterways and parkland defines the area's layout.
