About

March East ward lies on the eastern edge of the town of March, bordered by the expansive agricultural fields characteristic of Fenland. The area includes residential streets, local schools, and community facilities, with the landscape shaped by the low-lying, reclaimed fenland geography. The ward's eastern boundary is defined by the Old River Nene, a key watercourse that influences the local environment and drainage systems.

The ward contains the residential area of Creekgate and is connected to the town centre by the A141 road. A notable feature is the presence of several historic pumping stations, essential for managing water levels in this flat terrain. The local economy is supported by a mix of small businesses and light industry, alongside the predominant farming activities in the surrounding countryside.
