Reach is a small village and civil parish on the edge of the fenland in East Cambridgeshire, England.
Reach is located at the north end of Devil's Dyke, about 1.5 miles (2.4 km) west of Burwell. The dyke split the settlement in two (East Reach and West Reach) until part of it was refilled to create the current Fair Green in the 18th century. East Reach has since vanished, filled in by arable land.
