Cambridgeshire as a county is well known for its history and links to some famous figures of days gone by.

The river and its normal banks are indistinguishable at Holywell as flooding hit long areas of the Great Ouse throughout the district where a number of flood alerts remain in place.
Retired cameraman Melvyn Sibson took these pictures of the river on a cycle ride to improve his lockdown fitness.
Melvyn said: “Holywell was impassable and at St Ives drivers needed floats to park.”
Flood warnings are still in place in Huntingdonshire.

At present, the Environment Agency has seven flood alerts, where flooding is possible, in the Huntingdonshire area and two of the more serious flood warnings, where flooding is expected and immediate action is required, are east of Peterborough.
