A bit about Sawtry

Sawtry lies midway between Peterborough and Huntingdon, alongside the Great North Road. It was founded before the Anglo Saxons and is mentioned in the Domesday Book. It was home to Roman Legions, Cromwell fought the Cavaliers here and American bombers once roared overhead. It is home to around 6,000 residents.

The Villages of Glatton,Conington and Holme are also included on our Site.

We are also interested in anyone that might have photographs past and present on any subject, i.e. family connections with the village, old school photos or even grama's wedding all would be welcome. So please get in touch by emailing us at: sawtryarchive@yahoo.com
