Ely (North)

Last Tuesday, at long last got back to Ely to complete the new housing development off King's Avenue and the area around the Princess of Wales hospital.

The former has moved on somewhat since I was last there, including an almost complete new roundabout linking to the B road to Prickwillow. However there is still much housing under construction south of King's Avenue and will need another visit in a year or so to update.

The latter includes some new housing on land sold off by the Ministry of Defence around this old military, now civilian, hospital, but also includes some military housing which I balked at, seeing the notices "this is a prohibited area under the meaning of the Official Secrets Act".

Then continued north to fill in a bit more detail around the small village of Chettisham on my way to Littleport (see separate entry).

Nice to see someone mapping my old home town. It has certainly grown since I lived there.
