Notes:
Cambridgeshire (or, archaically, the County of Cambridge; abbreviated Cambs.) is a county in England.
Cambridgeshire is noted as the site of some of the earliest known Neolithic permanent settlement in the United Kingdom. A great quantity of archaeological finds, from the Stone Age, the Bronze Age and the Iron Age, were made in East Cambridgeshire. Most items were found in Isleham.
Cambridgeshire was recorded in the Domesday Book as "Grantbridgeshire" (or rather Grentebrigescire). Covering a large part of East Anglia, Cambridgeshire today is the product of several local government unifications. In 1888, when county councils were introduced, two were set up, following the traditional division of Cambridgeshire into the area in the south around Cambridge, and the liberty of the Isle of Ely. In 1965, these two administrative counties were merged to form Cambridgeshire and the Isle of Ely. In 1974, this then merged with the county to the west, Huntingdon and Peterborough (which had been created in 1965 by the merger of Huntingdonshire with the Soke of Peterborough - a part of Northamptonshire which had its own county council). The resulting county was called simply 'Cambridgeshire'.  Latitude: 52.339443, Longitude: 0.033918
