2. SITE CONTEXT
Welcome references to historic assets and features, but a factual correction is needed in relation to the ownership of Denny Abbey.
P14 para 3 Strictly speaking, Denny Abbey is in the guardianship of the English Heritage Trust and open to the public via a management agreement with the Farmland Museum Trust.
P18 Section 2.4 para 3 We welcome reference to Car Dyke, the raised causeways and the Soldier's Hill earthworks.
P18 Section 2.4 para 6 We also welcome reference to distant views to Ely Cathedral to the north of the site.
P18 Section 2.4 para 7 We welcome reference to the runways and barracks. Whilst these are not designated heritage assets, they represent an important component of the history of the site.
