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.

Starting at the famous Sedgwick Museum of Earth Sciences and with a short visit to the University of Cambridge Museum of Zoology, you pass the buildings that have witnessed some of the most remarkable work in the history of science from Darwin’s studies to Crick and Watson’s discovery of DNA. Both museums hold internationally important specimens and are worth extended visits themselves and the Sedgwick has published a Geology Trail featuring many of the building stones in the city. One of the other highlights of this walk to Fen Ditton is the journey along the River Cam. Rising from chalk springs in the hills to the south of the city, this important river flows north to join the River Ouse on its course to the Wash.

  • 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.
