More about this scene

The old mill is now a landmark for the Museum of Fenland Life, which is situated in the old barns alongside. The vegetable plots shown beside the track have been built over with houses, giving the appearance of a cul-de-sac, and the visitor is pleasantly surprised to find the museum right under the mill.

Sparked a Memory for you?

If this has sparked a memory, why not share it here?

When my family arrived in England from the US we went straight to our home which was located in Burwell. While my parents went to buy groceries for the kids we were able to start meeting our new playmates in the area. This was my first expereince with the difference in our english language. To this day I still get a laugh remembering when a young girl was leaving she said "Cheerio" and I thought to my self why is she talking about a cereal.
