The ward covers parts of Wisbech, including the adjoining village of Walsoken and the Waterlees neighbourhood, lying on the eastern edge of the Fens beside the River Nene in Fenland, Cambridgeshire, England.
It reflects the area's agricultural heritage - arable farms and market gardening remain important and support local agri‑food businesses - while Wisbech's Georgian town centre and riverside history add character. The neighbourhoods are a mix of Victorian and post‑war housing with active community groups, schools and ongoing regeneration efforts to tackle pockets of deprivation and improve services for a diverse local population; historically Walsoken has close ties with neighbouring Norfolk.
