Great Eversden is a small village and civil parish in South Cambridgeshire, Cambridgeshire, England, lying a few miles west of Cambridge. Set among gently rolling arable countryside and criss‑crossed by footpaths, it sits alongside its neighbour Little Eversden and retains a distinctly rural feel despite its proximity to the city.
The settlement has deep agricultural roots and a compact historic centre with a medieval parish church and several older cottages, and today combines farming with a population that includes commuters working in Cambridge’s universities and tech sector. Local life is quiet and community‑minded, organised around village gatherings, the church and occasional events that celebrate the village’s small‑scale historic character and countryside setting.
