About Huntingdon - show info hide info

Huntingdon is a town in East Anglia, England. The town was chartered in 1205, and has been celebrating its 800th anniversary in 2005. The village of Hartford lies just to the east. The town lies on the River Great Ouse, not far from the market town of St Neots. It has the largest meadow in England, Portholme Meadow. Around 257 acres (1 kmÂ²) in size and contains many rare species of grass, flowers and dragonfly. It also acts as a huge natural reservoir for holding excess water in times of flood enabling the river to be run off more slowly, thereby helping to prevent flooding of nearby towns. The town has a well preserved medieval bridge that used to serve as the main route of Ermine Street over the Great Ouse. The bridge only ceased to be the sole crossing point to Godmanchester in 1975, with the advent of what is now the A14 bypass. Its valuable trading position was secured by the now-vanished Huntingdon Castle. The Castle Hills on its site are now a Scheduled Ancient Monument, and are home to a beacon to commemorate the 400th anniversary of the Spanish Armada. Towns close to Huntingdon include
