Swavesey
[3] Swavesey, forming a historical parish of 3982 acres on the border with Huntingdonshire, lies on a narrow clay ridge rising to 18 metres above sea level at one time surrounded by fenland.[4] The present parish church in Swavesey, dedicated to St Andrew since the 11th century,[6] has a double aisle aspect to its nave.The railway line from Cambridge to St Ives, which passed through Swavesey, was opened in 1847 and closed in 1970, but has reopened as the Cambridgeshire Guided Busway.[4] The school provides secondary education for surrounding villages, including Over, Bar Hill, Longstanton, and Fenstanton, and uses a vertical tutor system.As with other village colleges, Swavesey's institution also provides adult education in the evenings and a myriad of extracurricular after-school clubs.
