Huntingdon

On the way up from the ferry back from The Netherlands last year we stopped off to have a look at Huntingdon – a place we hadn’t visited before.
Town Hall in main square:-
Old building also on square:-
All Saints Church lies beside the main square:-
It has nice arched windows glass and statuary in niches.
View from other side:-
Huntingdon was where Oliver Cromwell was born and the constituency he represented in Parliament. A bench in the square (with All Saints church in background) and a rubbish bin seems an odd way to commemorate him though.
But they do have a Cromwell Museum:-
The bench with the yellow heart on it in the first photo of the Church above is a memorial to the victims of Covid:-
