LOCAL AREA INFORMATION Dry Drayton is a village and civil parish about 5 miles northwest of Cambridge.
Dry Drayton has an Anglican church, a Methodist church, a primary school and a cricket ground and one remaining public house, The Black Horse, that opened around 1780. The village High Street was once the main focus of the village, but with expansion, the focus has moved towards the area closer to the field called 'The Park', despite not being a play park or recreational area. Most of the village services and shops closed following the opening of the Tesco superstore in Bar Hill.
Dry Drayton is connected to Bar Hill by a cycle path and pedestrian path.
