Description

This fascinating and beautifully photographed guidebook follows Cambridgeshire's waterways from leafy Huntingdon to the wide-sky Fens, along the lovely Nene Valley down to the busy port town of Wisbech and travels beside the gentle stream of the Cam into the architectural glories of the university city of Cambridge.

The narrative explores the history of Cambridgeshire through its vanished castles and abbeys, and traces the draining of the wild marshes.

Cambridgeshire is a county that is different to any other in England, and the watery landscapes of the Fens are unique.

From the bizarre Straw Bears that lead the hosts of morris dancers through the heart of Whittlesey every January, to the sedate Rose Fair that graces Wisbech church and gardens every June, Cambridgeshire has something to offer everyone.
