The chancel at the parish church of St. Mary the Virgin, Marholm was re-built by Sir William Fitzwilliam of Milton Hall towards the end of the pre-Reformation period.

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. Located just South of Woodcroft Castle.

In 1870-72, John Marius Wilson's Imperial Gazetteer of England and Wales described Marholm like this:
