Chatteris, Market town in Fenland district, Cambridgeshire, England.
Located between Huntingdon, March, and Ely, Chatteris stands on former marshland that was transformed through extensive drainage systems in the 17th century.
The settlement grew around St Mary's Benedictine nunnery, established in 980 by Aelfwen, which remained central to local life until its dissolution in 1538.
The Parish Church of St Peter and St Paul from the 14th century maintains regular services and houses architectural elements from different construction periods.
The Friday market in Park Street provides fresh produce, flowers, and local meats, continuing a tradition that officially began in 1834.
Archaeological discoveries reveal human presence dating back 780,000 years, with numerous flint tools and bronze age weapons now displayed in Chatteris Museum.
