Recently there has been some interest in our ‘historical Mud Walls’, unfortunately
The Mud Walls Group disbanded due to their only being 5 of us left. (I was the treasuer).
After the very sucessful publication of the Mud Wall assets in our area, the group handed back to the Whittlesey Society and Robert Boddington gave a presentation recently.
Mark Cross a well known and respected builder, has worked on several walls within Whittlesey, a prime example being the one behind the ‘Bull Inn’

Cambridgeshire Fire and Rescue Service is reminding communities of the dangers of electrical appliances in homes this Electrical Fire Safety Week.
Last year (2025) firefighters attended 10 fires started by an electrical appliance in a kitchen such as a washing machine, washer dryer, tumble dryer and dishwasher.
One family didn’t have smoke alarms and others had been running their appliances overnight or when they were not in the property.
Using electrical items is part of a regular routine for many individuals, so making sure to use them when awake and alert is crucial and can lower the risk of fire.
Station Commander for Community Fire Safety, Hannah Archdeacon, said: “We are reminding communities of the dangers of electrical items in properties if they are not used safely and with care and attention.
“Having working smoke alarms in your property will alert you should a fire occur, so it is important to make sure you have these on every floor and test them at least once a month.”
A few quick checks will make a big difference in making sure your home is safe from a potential electrical fire:
Hannah added: “A lot of your everyday household items will contain lithium-ion batteries such as wireless earphones, mobile phones, games consoles, rechargable hoovers and power tools.
“Please charge these items safely. Make sure you are inside the property and unplug them before you go to sleep.
“When it comes to purchasing new chargers, make sure to buy these from reputable manufacturers. It may be tempting to buy them cheap to save a few pennies however there is no guarantee these will meet the safety regulations required.”
Take charge and be safe this Electrical Fire Safety Week. If you are interested in knowing how fire safe your home is, why not use the Service’s online home fire safety check to find out.
Police forces will be forced to respond to emergency calls faster in England and Wales under new reforms. Under the new reforms, response officers will be expected to reach the scene of the most serious incidents within 15 minutes in cities and 20 minutes in rural areas. Forces will be expected to answer 999 phone calls within 10 seconds.
These new targets will ensure that all forces provide the same level of police response to crimes.
Currently, data on response times is collected differently across forces, and police are not held accountable if targets are not met. Reforming the system will create more transparency and consistency across the country.
(RG Note) I just wonder and I could ….call him a rather disparaging name our Police & Crime Commissioner – but won’t…. for every excuses he will make, just having yet again asked for the maximum allowed increase in Police precept for Cambridgeshire.
