Barton Square, Ely, Cambridgeshire

Barton Square is, without doubt, one of Ely’s most sought after locations. With the mainline railway station just down the road, and the Cathedral and High Street a short walk in the opposite direction, it is one of the most convenient locations in the city. The river and marina are also nearby, with one of the most picturesque approaches being through Cherry Hill Park and ‘The Porta’, which sits just across the square and dates back to the 1400s.
