Sacrewell 2025

There’s something for everyone at Sacrewell, from a four storey 18th century watermill, old farming equipment including a shepherd’s hut, a Claas combine harvester and a variety of horse-drawn machines for working in the fields, Shire horses to rare breeds of farm animals, overlooking some of Cambridgeshire’s beautiful countryside. As an agricultural charity, they give insights into where food comes from.

The farm is far more than a visitor attraction and has a fascinating history that can be traced back to the Domesday survey of 1086. Although the lie of the land suggests the Romans were using water power at Sacrewell hundreds of years earlier – perhaps even from the sacred well that gives Sacrewell its name. Since 1964, the 50 acre site has been run as a charity by the William Scott Abbott Trust with the aim of providing an agricultural education for everyone, from school children to heritage enthusiasts. The charity also owns the wider 550 acres of Sacrewell Farm.
