   A woolly mammoth lived just down the road!    24 October, 2018

The remains of a woolly mammoth and a woolly rhino have been uncovered near Fenstanton. Both animals lived around here, as presumably did many others, at least 100,000 years ago.

They are the latest finds by the team building the new A14 - this time during excavation for construction materials.
