About

Linton ward covers the large village of Linton and its surrounding rural land in the southeast of the county. The village itself is centred on its historic High Street, which features a mix of local shops and services. The area is characterised by chalk stream meadows and farmland that extends towards the Essex border. The River Granta flows through the parish, influencing the local landscape and ecology.

A notable local landmark is the Linton Zoo, a conservation-focused wildlife park established for decades. The parish church of St Mary’s, with its medieval tower, stands near the village centre. The ward includes the smaller settlement of Bartlow, known for its Roman burial mounds. Transport links are primarily via the A1307 road, connecting to Cambridge and Haverhill.
