Marholm is a village and civil parish in the Peterborough district, in the ceremonial county of Cambridgeshire, England.

West of Peterborough and 1 mile from the seat of the Fitzwilliam family at Milton Hall.

[1] For electoral purposes it forms part of Northborough ward in North West Cambridgeshire constituency.

[2] Peterborough Crematorium, a holder of the prestigious Green Flag Award, is located in approximately 26 acres (10.52 ha) of land in the parish, much of it left as original ancient woodland.

In 1870-72, John Marius Wilson's Imperial Gazetteer of England and Wales described Marholm like this:MARHOLM, a parish in Peterborough district, Northampton; adjacent to the Great Northern railway, 4½ miles NW by N of Peterborough r. station.

The earliest known alterations to the church can be dated to 1534 by Sir William Fitzwilliam of Milton (Sheriff of Northamptonshire in 1524) when the chancel was re-built.

The Darby family are one of the oldest tenants to the Fitzwilliam estate and are traceable to nearly 400 years ago on the Castor register.

It is very similar to Marholm Farmhouse, again it is a thatched building made from coursed stone rubble with flush quoins.

[9] Home Farm was initially run to meet the domestic needs of Milton rather than primarily for income.

Although over the last 50 years the domination of agriculture has diminished Marholm still retains its rural feel.

Typical housing in the area is detached, semi-detached and flats, with property prices regarded as 'average to high'.
