[1] Medieval remains, including a large stone coffin, have been unearthed near Stuntney, showing that an early settlement existed near here.

It was once surrounded by water, and a Bronze Age causeway connected Stuntney to the nearby cathedral town of Ely.

Before the course of the River Great Ouse was straightened by the Bishops of Ely in the 12th century, it came right up the edge of the island on which the village stood, and docks existed on what is now agricultural land.

[3] Although the village no longer has a school, a shop or a pub, the Stuntney Social Club provides refreshments for members and guests.

Stuntney Church of the Holy Cross is a Grade II* listed building[4] and holds regular services.
