About Littleport

Littleport stretches out across the flat Fens, a landscape of wide horizons and subtle shifts in light. It lies 7.0 km north-north-east of Ely (from Ely: bearing 24°T, OS grid TL 566 868), and is situated north-north-east of Chettisham village. The village’s arteries are the canals and drainage ditches, remnants of a determined effort to tame the marshland, their surfaces often reflecting the vast, open sky in a mirror of pewter and grey. Historically, Littleport was shaped by the rich soil and the ceaseless work of agriculture, its lifeblood flowing from the land that was painstakingly reclaimed. Even now, the air can carry the faint, earthy scent of the surrounding fields, a testament to generations who worked this ground. The village church, St George’s, stands as a solid anchor against the prevailing winds, its stone a warm, unassuming presence.
