About Wistow

Wistow is a small, rural village nestled in the tranquility of the Cambridgeshire countryside near Huntingdon.

In a small secluded valley off the Ramsey to St. Ives Road in Cambridgeshire, through which runs the Bury Brook, Wistow is a farming community that has grown up around the central features of its church and manor house.

The former is partly Norman, with some 15th Century painted glass. The manor house dates in part from the early 17th Century whilst timber-framed houses in this attractive village include the 16th and 17th Century Rooks Grove Farm, Porch House, Thatch Cottage and Lavender Cottage. The Three Horseshoes, a thatched pub, provides good fare.
