Woodhurst is a small rural village and civil parish in the historic district of Huntingdonshire in Cambridgeshire, England. Sitting on the edge of the Fenland, the landscape is characteristically flat with open arable fields and drainage channels, and it lies within easy reach of larger market towns such as Huntingdon and St Ives.
The community is tight‑knit and traditionally village‑centred, with a local parish church, a village hall and a predominantly agricultural economy; many of the surrounding field patterns and historic buildings reflect medieval and later rural development. Social life tends to revolve around seasonal events, clubs and neighbouring town amenities, making Woodhurst typical of small English fen‑edge settlements that combine quiet country living with links to nearby towns.
