A Weeping Willow in Alconbury, taken from across Alconbury Brook

It is in the district of Huntingdonshire and gives its name to RAF Alconbury. It is near to the point where a major north/south road, the A1, crosses a (rare) major east/west road, the A14. As of 2005 there are proposals to convert the airfield (now redundant) into a freight-only commercial airport to benefit from these surface links.
