ANOTHER ANNIVERSARY Rings End 150 Vicar’s Verbals Isn’t technology a wonderful thing? Several years ago, while Sarah and I were on a city-break in Brussels, our oldest son, then a student, rang Sarah’s mobile phone to tell us ‘its alright now, I’m out of hospital’. I won’t bore you with the details (one beer too many it seems) but you can image it took a while for our pulses to stop racing. The same son suddenly appeared ‘on line’ on Sarah’s Facebook page last week to tell us that he had safely arrived in Doha airport en route to Kenya - but disaster! – he couldn’t take a picture out of the hotel window because his camera kept steaming up! What he failed to tell us was that his plane had to make an emergency abort on landing because of windsheer and that Image courtesy of Wisbech& Fenland Museum everyone on board had to grip their Having recently drawn attention to the building from their own church, five miles from seats while the engines roared and of Guyhirn Chapel of Ease 350 years ago, there Elm, five from March, and four from the pilot took the plane around for is another local anniversary which should not be Wisbech St Mary’s church.

  • Local Plan Proposed Submission November 2017
    East Cambridgeshire Local Plan Proposed Submission November 2017 East Cambridgeshire District Council | Local Plan Proposed Submission Foreword Foreword East Cambridgeshire is characterised by its rural farming and equine landscape, interspersed with the City of Ely, small market towns and a wide range of attractive small and medium villages. Within that landscape are some real gems. The magnificent Ely Cathedral sitting proud as a the ‘ship of the fens’; Wicken Fen, which casts us back to a time before humans dominated the planet; the world famous Newmarket July Racecourse; and Anglesey Abbey, with its beautiful formal and informal grounds attracting visitors from far and wide. It’s no wonder that in 2012, the district scooped top spot in the Halifax’s annual rural areas quality of life survey. But there is so much potential to make East Cambridgeshire an even better place: with quality homes people can afford, easier access to shops, workplaces, services and facilities, and new thriving communities, which are welcoming and safe; where new facilities and infrastructure mean that businesses choose to expand or relocate here, bringing jobs and stimulating investment; to visit, a place where people choose to come to enjoy our nature, our history, our shops, our eateries and attractions, while at the same time significantly contributing to our rural and urban economies. And, fundamentally, we need to get building. We need to build a better East Cambridgeshire. In 2014/15, we only built 163 homes across the whole district, and only slightly higher figures of 181 homes in 2015/16 and 232 homes in 2016/17.

  • Altitude Problem
    Viewpoint Altitude problem Time: 15 mins Region: East of England Landscape: rural Location: Tydd St Giles, near Wisbech, Cambridgeshire, PE13 5NU Grid reference: TF 38300 13300 Keep an eye out for: shed-like brick buildings - these are the Fens water pumping stations You may be wondering why we have brought you to this rather flat and featureless set of fields. Looking around there are only crops, minor roads and the odd farm building: not much to attract our attention. Well this is an ‘invisible’ viewpoint! You might not be able to see much but take a look at the section of OS map near the pin. Find the contour line (the thin brown line snaking through the middle of the image). This marks the height of the land in metres above sea level. Look carefully and you’ll see it reads 0 metres. This means we are on land that’s lower than the sea. Why is this Cambridgeshire field - 20 miles from the coast - actually under the sea? The answer is all around. Look for the long straight channels across the fields. In wet weather they are full of water. These are not natural rivers but artificial ditches, dug to drain water off the fields. So much water was drained away here that the soil dried out and shrank. This lowered the land so much that in places it is now below sea-level! But why was the land drained here and how? Originally the expanse of low-lying land from Cambridge through The Wash and up into Lincolnshire was inhospitable.
