Here, we present whole-genome sequences from 10 individuals excavated close to Cambridge in the East of England, ranging from the late Iron Age to the middle Anglo-Saxon period.

Where possible the heads are indexed by surname, with cross-reference to similar surnames with spelling differences. On the few occasions when only Christian names are known, the order within that Christian name places abbots and abbesses before priors and prioresses. Individuals who held more than one office are brought together in one entry, but where there is no precise evidence for identifying persons of the same name as a single individual the entries are kept separate.

  • Land at Hinxton Response to Matters and Issues Raised by the Inspector
    M4/23548 Land at Hinxton Response to matters and issues raised by the Inspector Representation prepared by Terence O’Rourke on behalf of Hinxton Land Ltd Matter 4 Employment and retail c. Will the proposed amounts of land for economic development uses meet the needs for all foreseeable types of economic development? Summary 1. The employment land allocations will not meet all foreseeable types of economic development over the plan period. 2. The pressure for growth is significant to the South of Cambridge where most of the major high technology research facilities are located. 3. E/9 provides flexibility for delivering additional economic development over the plan period in the most sustainable locations and where businesses want to locate. These developments can be delivered in addition to, and in parallel with, the allocated sites over the plan period. Economic need and Policy E/9 During the consultation on the submission version of the local plan, Hinxton Land Ltd supported the inclusion of Policy E/9 (ID 60757, 60758) and Policy E/10 in principle (60759). These policies will facilitate the delivery of cluster-related economic development in sustainable locations during the plan period, which will help to maintain the Cambridge area as one of the leading concentrations of high technology and research clusters in the UK. Matter 4 c is relevant to these earlier representations prepared by Hinxton Land Ltd. We do not consider that the proposed amount of land allocated for economic development will meet the needs for all foreseeable types of economic development. Hinxton Land Ltd has not sought an allocation in the current plan, because policy E/9 provides policy support to deliver cluster-related development in sustainable locations, such as to the south of Cambridge on land beyond the green belt, in a flexible manner and in response to market demand.

  • 1 | Page Statement from Hinxton and Other South Cambridgeshire Parish Councils to the Uttlesford District Council Planning Polic
    Statement from Hinxton and other South Cambridgeshire Parish Councils to the Uttlesford District Council Planning Policy Working Group meeting, Thursday 31 May 2018 Thank you for the opportunity to comment on the proposed North Uttlesford Garden Community. Although I speak for Hinxton, my comments are fully supported by the chairs of the parish councils of Ickleton, Duxford, Pampisford, Whittlesford, Little Abington, and Great Abington - that is, by all those parishes in South Cambridgeshire that are directly affected. It is clear that Uttlesford is not proud of this proposed new town. You could not have pushed it further away. More than half of its edge is actually defined by the Essex-Cambridge county boundary. What a bizarre site for a town purporting to provide homes for people working in Uttlesford! Whatever the short-term political convenience of this choice, it has profound long-term implications for our parishes. We abut on half the proposed new town boundary, but we shall have to bear far, far more than half of the infrastructural and amenity costs. This is because the town would be high in our River Cam watershed, with all the flooding and pollution management implications bearing on our down-stream villages. It is because the town would be on top of the main aquifers of our water supplier, Cambridge Water, but not of yours, Affinity Water. It is because the traffic for the new town cannot possibly rely on the winding road to Saffron Walden. It will overwhelmingly be forced onto the already congested roads of South Cambridgeshire. It is because, over the years while the new town grows, the costs of its health, education and other needs will unavoidably be borne by our nearby communities in South Cambridgeshire.
