BC c.5000 - Neolithic (new stone age) Period begins; first evidence of farming appears; stone axes, antler combs, pottery in common use. c.4000 - Construction of the "Sweet Track" (named for its discoverer, Ray Sweet) begun; many similar raised, wooden walkways were constructed at this time providing a way to traverse the low, boggy, swampy areas in the Somerset Levels, near Glastonbury; earliest-known camps or communities appear (ie. Hembury, Devon). c.3500-3000 - First appearance of long barrows and chambered tombs; at Hambledon Hill (Dorset), the primitive burial rite known as "corpse exposure" was practiced, wherein bodies were left in the open air to decompose or be consumed by animals and birds. c.3000-2500 - Castlerigg Stone Circle (Cumbria), one of Britain's earliest and most beautiful, begun; Pentre Ifan (Dyfed), a classic example of a chambered tomb, constructed; Bryn Celli Ddu (Anglesey), known as the "mound in the dark grove," begun, one of the finest examples of a "passage grave." c.2500 - Bronze Age begins; multi-chambered tombs in use (ie.

PJD's Southoe Election Address, V2
Cambridgeshire County Council Election Thursday, May 4th 2017 Peter Downes to stand for the Liberal Democrats in Cambridgeshire Council election I am pleased to have been asked to stand to represent Southoe, along with Buckden, Diddington, Brampton and The Offords, in the new Cambridgeshire County Council from May 2017. I have been a County Councillor for the last 16 years and I have learnt a great deal about how local democracy works, what it can (and cannot!) achieve. On side 2 you will find a summary of the main policy priorities of the Liberal Democrats in Cambridgeshire and a short cv. In this letter, I want to spell out how I see the role of the County Councillor and what I would seek to do if elected. I would aim to keep you fully informed about the key issues facing the County Council as a provider of essential services, for example, care for the elderly, support for vulnerable young people,* highways maintenance and road safety. I would do this through regular Focus newsletters as I have done in Brampton since I first became a councillor They have just received edition no. 126 ! I would make myself as available as possible, in person and by telephone and e-mail, so that you can raise with me any specific concerns you may have about council services. I do not promise to be able* to solve everybody’s problems but I can usually provide guidance and a steer in the right direction, working constructively with council officers. I would work closely with the parish council, helping them to liaise with the County Council, representing local concerns and opinions on proposals coming forward. -

Monitoring of nitrogen dioxide suggested that concentrations have continued to very gradually decline in the district. New proposals for a significant upgrade and re-routing of the A14 trunk road and a key section of the A1 in the district have been made by the Highways Agency. These proposals represent a major opportunity to secure significant improvements in air quality in three of the four AQMAs in the district.
