About Stretham
Stretham is a village and civil parish located 4 miles south-south-west of Ely in Cambridgeshire, approximately 74 miles from London. A key point of interest is the Stretham Old Engine, a historic steam-powered pump that has been converted to electric power but still operates today, hosting open days throughout the year. This unique attraction highlights the area's rich heritage and may influence planning applications related to tourism and conservation in the region. The settlement has a population of approximately 2,070 (2021 estimate). It sits within the East Cambridgeshire district.
Stretham covers an area of approximately 6.3 km². The surrounding landscape and character of the area play an important role in how planning applications are assessed by the local authority.
In terms of safety, there were no crimes reported in the immediate area during the most recent reporting period (May 2026). This makes Stretham a particularly low-crime area, which is often reflected in its desirability and property values.
