Houghton Mill

Highlight • Historical Site

This is the last remaining working watermill on the River Great Ouse. A mill has been here for nearly 1,000 years and is currently cared for by the National Trust. You have to be a member or pay to look around the building but it is well worth it as the hosts are very knowledgeable and helpful. The car park is £2.50 a day for non-members. 2025 - There is now a time limit for parking for members and I dont know what the situation/charges are for non members. I park in Godmanchester in the stree for free now and walk the circular walk via the mill.

Great Ouse Water Meadows Path

Highlight • Trail

mind the cows and the lovely sheep! and the dog walkers. Meadow is liable to flood in very heavy rain (it's right next to the Great Ouse). Don't forget to shut the gates
