50 Gems of Cambridgeshire

The History & Heritage of the Most Iconic Places
A superb collection of 50 favourite and lesser-known places that reflect Cambridgeshire’s heritage, character and scenic splendour.

Think of Cambridgeshire and images of dreaming spires, gowned students and river punting probably spring to mind. It is a county unlike any other in England. In 50 Gems of Cambridgeshire local author Abigail Hamilton-Thompson shares some of the lesser-known jewels of the city of Cambridge and the tucked-away treasures to be found across the county. She explains its geography and history and shows how town, gown and the unique, watery landscape have shaped each other throughout the centuries. From Whittlesey’s unique Straw Bear Festival and the soaring splendour of Ely Cathedral to the ghostly goings-on in a historic riverside inn, Cambridgeshire offers something for everyone.

50 Gems of Cambridgeshire celebrates the county’s remarkable landscapes, buildings, stories and festivals. Fully illustrated throughout, readers will discover the places and heritage that make Cambridgeshire so special.
