Fenland, Administrative district in Cambridgeshire, England.
The Fenland district spans 546 square kilometers of flat agricultural terrain with four main towns: March, Wisbech, Whittlesey, and Chatteris.
Fenland District Council emerged on April 1, 1974, combining six previous local authorities including Wisbech Municipal Borough and March Urban District.
The district maintains strong agricultural traditions through regular farmers markets, seasonal food festivals, and community harvest celebrations across its towns.
The council headquarters in March provides essential services including waste collection, housing assistance, planning permissions, and environmental management.
The district manages an extensive network of drainage systems and waterways that transformed former wetlands into productive agricultural land.
