Standing on what was one of the largest islands in the Cambridgeshire Fens, Ely has a rich and varied history.

The Story of Ely takes an engaging look at this cathedral city from the earliest times to the modern day, recalling pivotal events and taking into account its unique architectural development and heritage.
