Holywell-cum-Needingworth village sign

Holywell-cum-Needingworth is a parish combining two delightful villages in Huntingdonshire, which are oftenest yoked together in speech and consideration:

The parish extends east from St Ives along the north bank of the River Great Ouse. Holywell is the smaller village and is found down a dead-end road from Needingworth, on the banks of the Great Ouse. Residential development which has been extensive in recent years has tended to bring the two village closer togeher, but they remain separated by their meadows.
