Editorial board The project is implemented by Dr Helen Haugh Centre for Social Innovation at Cambridge Centre for Social Innovation Cambridge Judge Business School Cambridge Judge Business School and the Diocese of Ely Geoffrey Hunter with the generous support of Allchurches Trust Diocese of Ely and Historic England www.reachely.org The challenges facing church communities and their buildings have been extensively studied in the light of declining church attendance in the United Kingdom over several decades. REACH Ely aims to address the less-well-understood opportunities for churches to engage and reconnect with the 97.7 per cent of the local communities in the Diocese of Ely who do not attend their parish churches. With the absence of universal determinants of success and failure of churches in the community engagement context, the REACH Ely project will provide an understanding of the relationship between communities and wider use of church buildings as well as the contribution that churches make to the common good. The project will determine community values, needs and opportunities that can be used in the most effective way to ensure a win-win outcome for communities and sustainable future of church buildings.

South Cambridgeshire District is bordered to the northeast by East Cambridgeshire District, to the southeast by St Edmundsbury District, to the south by Uttlesford District, to the southwest by North Hertfordshire District, to the west by Central Bedfordshire and to the northwest by Huntingdonshire District.

All the pay and play squash facilities across Cambridge and South Cambridgeshire District are located on education sites; all but Kelsey Kerridge therefore have limited day time access. However, the majority of squash is played in evenings and weekends, so this is less of an issue than it is for sports hall provision.

This document aims to fulfil South Cambridgeshire District Council’s duty to ‘draw up and publish proposals for the preservation and enhancement’ of these areas as required by the Planning (Listed Buildings and Conservation Areas) Act 1990 and the commitment made by policy EN29 in the adopted Local Plan. 1.2 This section to report on public consultation and confirm the status of the appraisal as supplementary planning guidance / document.

Coprolite Diggers Original Source Unknown
Coprolite Diggers Original source unknown. The discovery that certain types of stone was good for the growing of crops was discovered during the eighteenth century after a Suffolk farmer spread gravel over his land. Analytical chemists studied the stones and fossils, found a way to dissolve them and make a powdered fertiliser which could be then used on the land. Coprolites are known locally as ‘dinosaur’s dung’, but examination of the fossils showed an important element was the remains of marine life. The chemical quality was important and coprolites found in Cambridgeshire contained up to 60% phosphates. At the height of the boom during the late nineteenth century a great deal of money could be made from the extraction of the coprolites from the land and turning them into fertiliser. Cambridge City Council received about £10,000 from their beds on Coldham’s Common. This money was used to help in the building of Fulbourn Mental Hospital and the Guildhall. Other entrepreneurs included well known local names; William Coulson, John Ellis, Samuel Fison, Fred. Hart, John Chivers, Charles Bidwell, Carter Jonas and Clement Francis. The fossil bed in Cambridgeshire ranged from Soham in the north-east and curved around Cambridge southwards down to the Bedfordshire and Hertfordshire borders. There was a large bed in the area between Fen Ditton, Horningsea and Bottisham. The average layer of coprolites in the soil was ten inches, but in some places could be up to six feet deep. The extraction of all the coprolites was labour intensive and dangerous. First of all the topsoil had to be removed to one end of the field.
