Chatteris, in Cambridgeshire, had a population of around 11,300 at the 2021 census — a Fenland market town that grew up around one of the region's few medieval nunneries.
A Fenland town built around a lost abbey
Chatteris grew up around Chatteris Abbey, a Benedictine nunnery founded around 1006 by Ednoth, who later became Bishop of Dorchester. It was one of only a handful of nunneries in the Fens, and although the abbey itself has long since disappeared, its name and history are still woven into the town's identity.
What that history doesn't leave behind
This town's history doesn't come with a dedicated sweet shop set up for bulk bags, vegan-specific ranges or halal-friendly lines — not the kind of retail a town this size tends to support locally.
Why Chatteris shoppers order online anyway
For anything past a corner-shop bag, ordering online is more consistent — no trip into March or Ely required.
