Pymoor is a village in Cambridgeshire in the vicinity of Ely and in the parish of Little Downham.[1] There are approximately 390 residents according to the 2011 census, although that figure probably includes the nearby settlements of Oxlode and Hundred Foot Bank.[2] [3] It is sometimes referred to as Pymore or Pyemoor. In 1997, the earliest spelling on record was decided as the "official" spelling.[1]
The name Pymoor means "flies over bog" and the village sign shows a dragonfly settling on a bullrush in marshland.[1] It is on the edge of the Ouse Washes at Welches Dam by the New Bedford River, and as a result geographically a close neighbour of Manea, but many miles away by road.
The Pymoor Country and Agricultural show is an annual one day show.[2] A Methodist chapel is the only place of worship.[4] The area around the village was used for filming the 2007 film Atonement.
