Map of the UK

The civil parish of Upton and Coppingford sits in rural Huntingdonshire, Cambridgeshire, England, made up of two small villages and surrounding farmland. The area is characterised by rolling arable fields, hedgerows and a quiet, sparsely populated feel, yet it lies within easy driving distance of Huntingdon and Peterborough, so many residents combine village life with jobs in the nearby towns.

Both settlements have medieval origins and the parish retains older farmhouses, remnants of historic features and a modest village community rather than many services; agriculture remains the dominant local economy while the lanes and footpaths attract walkers and wildlife enthusiasts. Social life tends to revolve around local events and neighbouring market towns, preserving a strong rural character typical of small Cambridgeshire parishes.
