Upper Cambourne forms the easternmost part of the three distinct interconnected villages that make up the wider settlement of Cambourne, situated roughly nine miles west of Cambridge along the A428. Development began here in the early 2000s, turning former agricultural land into a settlement designed with a focus on green space; unlike many modern developments, it is characterized by "green spines" and a surrounding woodland orchard that acts as a natural buffer. While Lower and Great Cambourne house the primary supermarket and many of the municipal buildings, Upper Cambourne has its own distinct identity centered around the village cricket pitch and a local primary school. The geography of the area is quite flat, but the network of footpaths and bridleways is extensive, linking the locality to the nearby Bourn Airfield and the older, traditional villages of the clayland plateau like Caxton and Eltisley. It is a practical location for those working in the city or the nearby science parks, as it offers a quieter, more residential feel while remaining within walking distance of the central village amenities.
