Bringing Cambridgeshire and Huntingdonshire's history to life.
Did you know that we can offer high-quality scans of our and your own documents? Our Cambridgeshire Archives’ FSB Scanning Bureau specialises in the digitisation of historical documents, artefacts and photographs, 35mm slides, glass plate negatives and volumes.
📢EVENT📢 Our 'Step Into Nature' event is taking place this Saturday, please do book and come along. Every booking helps towards preserving these records and future outreach events.
Step Into Nature is almost here! Join us at Huntingdonshire Archives on Saturday 26th July (1:30-3:30pm) for a unique journey through time as part of the Huntingdonshire History Festival .
It's appalling how little we pay archivists, when they never know if they'll have to turn a page and deal with 21 year-old cat food 😿
Interestingly, there’s also a very old piece of cat food taped to one of the pages! We’ve occasionally found flowers pressed between the pages of old books before, but never cat food so this one is entirely new to us.
