Our Local History: What's the Evidence?
21 November 2013

The meeting included a series of presentations by Committee Members about sources of
information. It was preceded by a brief presentation by the Mayor of Cambridge and the AGM.

The City Council and local residents have received a
national award for street naming and
numbering. This recognises the Council's work with the Trumpington Residents' Association and
the Trumpington Local History Group, who have supported the council by proposing names for
the streets in the three new developments. The Mayor came to the beginning of the meeting to
present a certificate to the local community.

The presentations about sources of information included:

Evidence of the early History of Trumpington: from
Prehistory to the early 1800s (Andrew
Roberts).
Evidence for the History of Trumpington:
19th-20th Century (Howard Slatter).
Evidence from postcards and other illustrations (Arthur Brookes).
Evidence from
personal recollections (Shirley Brown).
