Location - Swaffham Prior
Swaffham Prior is a picturesque village located in East Cambridgeshire, approximately 8 miles from the city of Cambridge and 6 miles from the market town of Newmarket. The village benefits from excellent transport links and major roads such as the A14 and A11, allowing easy commutes to neighbouring cities.

The village is home to two churches, St. Mary's and St. Cyriac and St. Julitta. St. Mary's Church, originally built in Norman times, was fully restored in the early 20th century and now serves as the main parish church. It is active in the community, hosting regular services, weddings, and special events throughout the year. St. Cyriac and St. Julitta, was built before 1200, and although it is no longer used for regular worship, it now serves as a hall for exhibitions, concerts, and other community functions.

Just down the road to the East is the Devil's Dyke; an ancient earthwork. This provides good walking opportunities with views across the surrounding countryside and has some interesting plants growing on it. The National Trust's Wicken Fen Vision will extend the area of fen being restored to its natural state to include areas of fen within the parish.

Swaffham Prior offers several local amenities, including The Red Lion a lovely 17th century pub that offers an excellent selection of cask ales and wines, a primary school, and a village hall which hosts a variety of social events such as village feasts and fêtes. The village is also known for its two iconic windmills, one of which remains operational. There are also many walking opportunities and cycling routes, with lovely views over the surrounding countryside. Its proximity to Newmarket, renowned as the headquarters of British horseracing, provides residents with access to a wider range of amenities, such as a variety of shops, restaurants, schools, and healthcare facilities.

For homebuyers seeking a peaceful village within easy reach of larger towns and cities, we recommend giving Swaffham Prior a visit!
