Cheveley Parish»

Cheveley parish has a population of around 1,900 people and comprises two wards - the South Ward, which contains the rural village of Cheveley and is situated approximately three miles south-east of Newmarket and the North Ward, which is situated on the fringes of Newmarket and includes the area between Duchess Drive, and Ashley Road.

The village is linear in nature and the central part, which has been designated as a Conservation Area contains a number of thatched properties some dating back to the 1600s. The use of flint, particularly for the building of boundary walls adds to the character of the village. Click here for details of Cheveley's history or Click here to see more  photographs.

The church of St Mary and the Sacred Host of Heaven, which is situated at the centre of the village in the Conservation Area dates back to the late 13th century. There is also a United Reformed church in the village.

The facilities within the village of Cheveley include a primary school, a recreation ground with a children’s play area and a sports pavilion, a public house, a grocery shop and post office and a community room that is available for hire by local groups. There is a regular bus service to Newmarket.
