Local trees

I am an avid tree lover, it has dawned on me that fir, pine trees and holly are not a feature of the Ely landscape. Am I wrong in this? Where can I see these around Ely? Thanks.

Good Sunday carvery in Ely or nearby?

Hello everyone - I'm meeting an old school friend and his family in Ely on Sunday so our children can play together in the country park playground.

We'd like to find a nice place for a Sunday lunch - can anybody recommend a good carvery anywhere in the city?

Or if not carvery, a pub or cafe that does a good roast type lunch?

Thank you!

What's the deal with the homeless guy who camps out in the tunnel by Ely market?

Is the Ely Fireworks Night Good for Families with Young Kids?

Hey everyone! We're a family of three with a daughter who’s almost 3 years old, and we're thinking about attending the fireworks display on Saturday. We love the idea of celebrating together, but we're not sure if it's kid-friendly, especially for toddlers.

How’s the noise level for little ones? We want her to enjoy the colors and excitement without getting overwhelmed.

Any tips or experiences would be super helpful. Thanks in advance!

I saw the Tsuchinshan comet, Andromeda, Starlink & meteors from Adventurer’s Fen last night

Used a pair of binoculars to see the comet & andromeda, but the sky was great without too much pollution.
