The B1096 is a rural B-road across the Fens.
It starts on a TOTSO of the B1040 in Ramsey. It leaves the village to the northeast and soon arrives at Ramsey Forty Foot, an unusually named place which can be explained by the fact it is the part of Ramsey Parish which lies on the Forty Foot Drain. That watercourse is crossed and then the B1096 runs along its northern bank for about half a mile. The B1096 then has to TOTSO, although an unclassified road along the drain bank continues for some distance.
The B1096 then zigzags across Turf Fen for a few miles before reaching Benwick. The road ends here on the B1093, which also has to TOTSO at the junction.
