St Neots, in Cambridgeshire, had a population of around 32,000 at the 2021 census, making it one of the larger towns in the county — built around a historic market place on the banks of the River Great Ouse.
A priory town on the Great Ouse
St Neots grew up around a priory founded in the 10th or 11th century and named after St Neot, whose relics were said to be held there, and the town took its name from that priory. Its market charter dates back centuries, and the riverside market place remains the heart of the town today, with the Great Ouse running alongside it and the Market Square still hosting a regular market. The river has long shaped the town, from its mills to its bridges to the meadows that flank it.
What that history doesn't leave behind
St Neots' riverside market doesn't include a dedicated bulk sweet shop — there's nowhere locally set up for bulk bags, vegan-specific ranges or halal-friendly lines at scale.
