The Catholic Church of St Michael The Archangel

You'll find this Victorian church tucked away east of Huntingdon, a proper bit of local religious architecture that doesn't scream for attention but rewards a quiet visit. St Michael the Archangel is a Catholic place of worship - relatively uncommon in rural Cambridgeshire - which gives it a particular character you won't find in the parish church down the road.

Inside, it's straightforward Victorian Catholic design. The building itself is the draw rather than elaborate decoration, though there's something rather pleasing about that honesty. It's the sort of place you'd spend twenty minutes with, not two hours - good for a brief stop if you're interested in local religious heritage or simply curious about how the Catholic community established itself in this part of England.

Really best suited to architecture enthusiasts or those with a specific interest in the area's religious history. Families won't find it thrilling, and walkers passing through would struggle to justify the detour unless they're already heading that way.

If you're based at Grafham Water Caravan and Motorhome Club Campsite - just 5.7 miles away - it's an easy afternoon potter into Huntingdon proper. Worth combining with a walk along the riverside or exploring the town's Georgian high street rather than making it a solo trip. Practically speaking, expect free admission and open access during reasonable daylight hours, though it's worth checking locally given it's an active parish church with services.
