Littleport is a large Fenland village located in northern Cambridgeshire, and it sits beside the River Great Ouse about six miles north of Ely. Littleport's roots go back centuries, and the settlement is associated with the Littleport Riots of 1816, when hardship and rising food prices sparked serious unrest in the area. The parish recorded a population of roughly 9,200 at the 2021 Census, and today there is a decent spread of shops, schools, pubs, medical services, sports facilities and everyday amenities.
Littleport railway station is a real plus point for the town, with direct services towards Ely, Cambridge and London King's Cross, while the A10 provides road links towards Ely, Cambridge and King's Lynn. Local walks along the Great Ouse and surrounding Fen countryside are worth exploring if you are in the area, along with Ely Cathedral and its historic city centre which is only a short trip away.
