Bluntisham
Bluntisham stands north east of St. Ives, close to the River Great Ouse. It is bordered on the one side by the fens and on the other, what was mainly orchards, but has now been turned under the plough.
It is an attractive, growing village with a medieval church built of local brown cobbles and a "Gothicised" Baptist Chapel. A short distance away lies Bury Fen where, weather allowing, ice skating is the local sport and ice hockey is reputed to have originated under the name of "Bandy". St Helen's Primary School aim to provide an education that will enable each individual child to discover their full potential in a happy, caring and stimulating environment. They have a highly skilled and committed staff who work hard to ensure children receive a broad, well balanced curriculum of the highest standard. Brambles Playgroup is within the St. Helens School premises. ColneColne, set amid orchards beside the by-roads between Earith and Somersham, is prettily grouped around a triangular green which used to have a large pond in it, but sadly is long since filled in.
Behind the green is a small church built in 1900 to replace the one half a mile to the north which had fallen down in 1896. Nearby is the south porch which is all that remains of the old church which collapsed in 1896. |
