Wednesday 10th September 2014 at 10.00 am.

We will be taken on a guided tour around the museum, based in Cambridge’s old sewage pumping station on Cheddars Lane.  This site was one of the earliest examples of recycling – the city’s rubbish being burned here to produce steam to power the steam engines to pump the sewage.  The Museum exists to preserve industrial exhibit material relevant to the Cambridge area, and on the tour we will learn about the development of power from steam, through internal combustion, to electricity.      GO TO ‘READ MORE’ Read more
