  • The David Attenborough Building Pembroke St, Cambridge CB2 3QY
    Venue The David Attenborough Building Pembroke St, Cambridge CB2 3QY http://www.conservation.cam.ac.uk/ Cambridge Cambridge is a university city and the county town of Cambridgeshire, England, on the River Cam about 50 miles (80 km) north of London. At the United Kingdom Census 2011, its population was 123,867, including 24,488 students. There is archaeological evidence of settlement in the area in the Bronze Age and in Roman Britain; under Viking rule, Cambridge became an important trading centre. The first town charters were granted in the 12th century, although city status was not conferred until 1951. Cambridge is the home of the University of Cambridge, founded in 1209 and one of the top five universities in the world. The university includes the Cavendish Laboratory, King's College Chapel, and the Cambridge University Library. The Cambridge skyline is dominated by the last two buildings, along with the spire of the Our Lady and the English Martyrs Church, the chimney of Addenbrooke's Hospital and St John's College Chapel tower. Cambridge is at the heart of the high-technology Silicon Fen with industries such as software and bioscience and many start-up companies spun out of the university. Over 40% of the workforce have a higher education qualification, more than twice the national average. Cambridge is also home to the Cambridge Biomedical Campus, one of the largest biomedical research clusters in the world, soon to be home to AstraZeneca, a hotel and relocated Papworth Hospital. Parker's Piece hosted the first ever game of Association football. The Strawberry Fair music and arts festival and Midsummer Fairs are held on Midsummer Common, and the annual Cambridge Beer Festival takes place on Jesus Green.

South Cambridgeshire District completely encircles Cambridge. 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. The neighbouring counties are shown on Map 2.2 below: Paragraph 5.320 Add additional sentence to the end of paragraph 5.320 to clarify the usage of squash facilities. 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.

Abstract “Green corridors are generally poorly quantified by local authorities, making their extent and condition difficult to assess.” Page 376. UK National Ecosystem Assessment Technical Report. 2011/2014 Mal Schofield [Email address][email protected] Reflections CAM RIVER MATTERS There are many Cambridge residents who care about the Cam.

In fact, except in some short periods of unwonted prosperity, Jesus was, until recent ' 1 times, emphatically a small college, low in revenues, and in numbers competing with Peterhouse and Magda- lene rather than with Caius or Christ's.

  • Managing the City's Green Spaces - a Report from Midsummer Common and Jesus Green
    Managing the City's Green Spaces - a report from Midsummer Common and Jesus Green Purpose. This short paper gives a local perspective on the condition and management of Midsummer Common and Jesus Green. Historically they were as one but they are now distinctly different - Midsummer Common remains a traditional Common with grazing cattle and host to fairs and other events whilst Jesus Green has become an urban park with tennis courts, swimming pool, skate park, playground and café. Although they are both "common land", their management needs are different and this is recognised by the Friends of Midsummer Common and the Jesus Green Association in drafting this joint paper. The paper reflects the views of their respective members and others living around the two green spaces. It tries to identify problems and present a way forward. Background. Over the last two decades the Government has enacted legislation 1 and issued guidance2 to local authorities on the management of their green spaces. Cambridge has enacted its own legislation 3 but has still to finalise a Parks and Open Spaces Strategy for the City4. To be successful, any such Strategy must have full Council commitment. What does this mean for Midsummer Common and Jesus Green? In 2001 the Council published its Conservation Plan for Midsummer Common. Most of its recommendations were ignored. In 2008 the Council engaged the Wildlife Trust to prepare a Management Plan for Midsummer Common. The Friends of Midsummer Common want to see the 7 main objectives in this Plan5 fully implemented and is working with the Council to achieve this.

  • Section Two - Your Park
    Extracts from: Jesus Green – Parks for People bid (Stage one) Submitted August 2011 Section Two - Your Park Our Priorities 2a Describe your park, and where it is located. Jesus Green is an urban open space of 11 hectares just north of Cambridge city centre, within a few minutes walk of the main shopping area and close to visitor attractions and riverside recreation. It takes its name from Jesus College to its south, which began as a Benedictine Nunnery in the twelfth century but was closed in1496 to become a college of the university. Together with Midsummer Common to its east, the Green once formed part of a water- meadow known as Greencroft, in the ownership of the Corporation of the city; in 1890 the construction of Victoria bridge and avenue divided the meadow in two, since then the characters of the two areas have diverged. Jesus Green is an important piece of urban open space that provides several significant facilities for citywide residents and for visitors. The river Cam flowing east forms the northern boundary, and Jesus Lock and the lock keeper's Cottage are notable features. Jesus ditch separates the green from Jesus College on the southern side; the Victorian houses of Park Parade overlook it on the west. The river Cam to the north provides moorings for residential and visiting watercraft. On the east, the horse chestnut trees, which frame Victoria Avenue, maintain the link between Jesus Green and Midsummer Common. The park can be entered from a number of locations, but the main public access points are by footpaths entering at the north-east, northwest, and south-western corners, and a footbridge crossing the river into the park on its northern edge.
