I searched for caravan sites near Ely, and Google identified it for me, about a mile south of Ely.

Thanks, Jim. I can’t see Two Acres, but we stayed at Braham Farm:

52.374779, 0.251706

Which is the site of a monastic settlement dating back over 1,000 years, it 
seems:

I had thought, until last weekend, that drainage of the Fens started in the 
1600s, but in fact it started hundreds of years before.

And my photos are here:

As always I’m happy to receive comment or criticism.

I'm looking forward to your images.  From Google Maps, it looks like you might 
have stayed at Two Acres.

At least I think that that is its nickname.  We visited Ely this weekend, staying in 
our caravan about 30 minutes’ walk to the south.  The town is a great place, 
picturesque and alive, with decent drinking and eating places.  I took a few photos 
for the blog.

I’m going to try changing the theme next week, but I hope to be able to do so without 
losing what I’ve put up so far.
