Local area guide
Skip hire in St Neots
St Neots is a market town in Cambridgeshire, sitting on the Great Ouse around 16 miles west of Cambridge, with a population of around 33,000 — the largest town in the county after Cambridge and Peterborough. It takes its name from St Neot, a ninth-century Cornish monk whose relics were brought here around 980 to a new Benedictine priory; the priory grew wealthy and the market town developed around it, receiving a market charter in the twelfth century.
The town's centre is its Market Square, one of the largest in England, running down to the river and the bridge across the Ouse. The parish church of St Mary the Virgin, with a magnificent fifteenth-century tower, is known as the Cathedral of Huntingdonshire and is regarded as one of the finest Perpendicular churches in the region. St Neots Museum, housed in the former magistrates' court and police station, holds a varied local collection.
St Neots has an unusual claim in the history of meteorology. In the 1930s the Paxton Pits area and the flat, open countryside made it a site for early weather observation work, and the town recorded one of the hottest temperatures of its era. More substantively, the surrounding river valley has been extensively worked for gravel, and Paxton Pits Nature Reserve on the town's northern edge — a series of flooded former gravel workings — is now an important wetland reserve known for nightingales, cormorants and wintering wildfowl.
The town grew substantially from the 1960s as a London overspill town under the Town Development Act, absorbing the neighbouring settlements of Eaton Socon and Eaton Ford on the west bank of the Ouse, and it has continued to expand as a commuter town. Eaton Socon, historically part of Bedfordshire until 1965, has its own village green and church.
St Neots sits on the A428 and just off the A1, with the East Coast Main Line giving services to London King's Cross in around 45 minutes and north to Peterborough. The large new Loves Farm and Wintringham Park developments on the town's eastern edge have added thousands of homes. Housing ranges from Georgian and earlier property around the Market Square and High Street — a conservation area with a substantial number of listed buildings — to Victorian terraces, extensive 1960s and 1970s overspill estates, and very substantial modern development, making St Neots one of the fastest-growing towns in the east of England.
