Needingworth is a village in the historic district of Huntingdonshire, now administered within Cambridgeshire, England. It sits on the flat Fenland plain just north of St Ives and close to the River Great Ouse, an area marked by drained agricultural land and a scattering of flooded gravel pits and lakes that have become valuable spots for wildlife and angling.
Historically agricultural, the village retains a rural character with a mix of traditional buildings, a parish community and local amenities, while many residents commute to nearby centres such as Cambridge and Peterborough. The local economy combines farming, small businesses and leisure pursuits tied to the rivers and lakes, and village events and groups help maintain a strong community feel.
