Geography of Huntingdonshire

Huntingdonshire, although now the northern district of Cambridgeshire, is a "county" of two halves, one with the hills and valleys that are quintessentially what is perceived to be "English Countryside" and the other half being a landscape that would not be out-of-place in Holland.

Some writers have remarked that the county of Huntingdonshire is unremarkable but in fact nothing could be further from the truth. Although Huntingdonshire is a very small county, only the county of Rutland is smaller, it exhibits many unique and interesting characteristics.
