IS THIS THE WORSE CITY TO LIVE IN England ???????? | PETERBOROUGH
Hi guy!
In this video , i had a quick tour of what has been voted the 2nd worse city to live in England. I had an arm wrestling with a stranger, spoke to a local priest and paid a visit to the famous Peterborough Cathedral!
Peterborough is strategically located in the East of England , within the county of Cambridgeshire. it's central position places it approximately 75 miles North of London, making it an accessible hub for both local and regional connections.

Trains at Conington Level Crossing, ECML | 14/10/17
A quiet and sunny evening visit to Conington Level Crossing on the East Coast Mainline on a early Saturday evening.
Mileage: 69 miles 29 chains
Conington info:
Conington is a village and civil parish in Cambridgeshire, England. Conington lies approximately 10 kilometres (6 mi) south of Peterborough and 3 kilometres (2 mi) north of Sawtry, within earshot of Ermine Street, now called the Great North Road. Conington is situated within Huntingdonshire which is a non-metropolitan district of Cambridgeshire as well as being a historic county of England.
History:
Conington was listed in the Domesday Book in the Hundred of Normancross in Huntingdonshire; the name of the settlement was written as Coninctune in the Domesday Book.[2] In 1086 there was just one manor at Conington; the annual rent paid to the lord of the manor in 1066 had been £9 and the rent was the same in 1086.[3]
The Domesday Book does not explicitly detail the population of a place but it records that there was 27 households at Conington.[3] There is no consensus about the average size of a household at that time; estimates range from 3.5 to 5.0 people per household.[4] Using these figures then an estimate of the population of Conington in 1086 is that it was within the range of 94 and 135 people.
The Domesday Book uses a number of units of measure for areas of land that are now unfamiliar terms, such as hides and ploughlands. In different parts of the country, these were terms for the area of land that a team of eight oxen could plough in a single season and are equivalent to 120 acres (49 hectares); this was the amount of land that was considered to be sufficient to support a single family. By 1086, the hide had become a unit of tax assessment rather than an actual land area; a hide was the amount of land that could be assessed as £1 for tax purposes. The survey records that there was 15 ploughlands at Conington in 1086.[3] In addition to the arable land, there was 40 acres (16 hectares) of meadows at Conington.[3]
The total tax assessment in the Domesday Book for the manor at Conington was nine geld.[3]
By 1086 there was already a church and a priest at Conington.
The Cotton Baronetcy of Conington was created in the Baronetage of England on 29 June 1611 for the antiquary Robert Bruce Cotton (1570–1631), who also represented five constituencies in the House of Commons.[5] The novelist and editor Henrietta Maria Bowdler was born in Conington in 1750.[6]
In the Second World War, Conington was located next to Royal Air Force Station Glatton. RAF Glatton was constructed to Class A standards to support heavy bombers in 1943 with the intent of being used by the US Army Air Forces. The 457th Bombardment Group (Heavy) arrived on 21 January 1944. The recognisable tail code of the 457th was the triangle U painted on the vertical stabilizers of the Boeing B-17 Flying Fortresses which operated from the air base. The 457th Bomb Group operated RAF Glatton from January 1944 until 20 April 1945, when it completed its 237th and last combat mission at the conclusion of the war. In All Saints Church, Conington is a memorial to the 457th Bomb Group.
Rail incident:
The Connington South rail crash occurred on 5 March 1967 on the East Coast Main Line near the village of Conington, Huntingdonshire, England. Five passengers were killed and 18 were injured.
The 22:30 express from King's Cross to Edinburgh, hauled by a Deltic locomotive, was travelling along the Down Fast line at around 75 mph when the rear portion of the train was derailed to the left. The last four coaches came to rest on their sides and two
others were derailed. This was cause by a signalling error (likely deliberate)

Governance:
As a civil parish, Conington has an elected parish council. It consists of five members. Conington was in the historic and administrative county of Huntingdonshire until 1965. From 1965, it became part of the new administrative county of Huntingdon and Peterborough. Then in 1974, following the Local Government Act 1972, Conington became part of the county of Cambridgeshire, with Huntingdonshire District Council as its second tier. Conington lies in the district ward of Sawtry. It is represented on the district council by two councillors as part of the electoral division of Sawtry and Ellington, and is represented on the county council by one councillor. It lies the parliamentary constituency of North West Cambridgeshire.
Population:
n the period 1801 to 1901 the population of Conington was recorded every ten years by the UK census. During this time the population was in the range of 154 (in 1801) and 319 (in 1851).
From 1901, a census was taken every ten years with the exception of 1941 (due to the Second World War).
In 2011, the parish covered an area of 3,173 acres (1,284 hectares) and so the population density for Conington in 2011 was 42.2 persons per square mile (16.3 per square kilometre).
Rail Crash:
The Connington South rail crash occurred on 5 March 1967 on the East Coast Main Line near the village of Conington, Huntingdonshire, England. Five passengers were killed and 18 were injured.
The 22:30 express from King's Cross to Edinburgh, hauled by a Deltic locomotive, was travelling along the Down Fast line at around 75 mph when the rear portion of the train was derailed to the left. The last four coaches came to rest on their sides and two others were derailed.
Consequences:
The signalman had entered the railway service in January 1965 after serving with the Royal Marines. He had been discharged after suffering from hysteria and immature personality, but this was not known to the railway management at the time, even though his references had been taken up.
He was tried on charges of manslaughter and endangering the safety of railway passengers in November 1968. After a trial lasting 11 days, the judge instructed the jury to acquit him on the charges of manslaughter and sentenced him to two years' imprisonment for unlawfully operating the signal and points mechanism of the Connington South signal box so as to endanger persons being conveyed on a railway, on which charge the signalman had changed his plea to guilty.

Investigation:
The interlocking showed that the Home signal had been at Danger when the accident occurred, but the driver and secondman stated that it was displaying Green until it passed out of their sight. Just beyond the Home signal there were points for controlling movements from the Down Fast to the Down Goods line, and it was on these that the train was derailed. The points were locked in position by two means:
A standard mechanical lock, operated by a lever in the lever frame. It could not be released unless the Home signal was at Danger.
An electrical lock, which engaged if a track circuit just beyond the Home signal was occupied by a train.

Now that the government has stated that people may go out with only members of their households to locations i decided to take a trip to Conington LC with my dad. Note all social distancing measures were observed when needed, i also chose Conington to visit because of the lack of people who use the crossing. None the less a brilliant hour at Conington Crossing on Wednesday 13th May 2020. Also notice the bonus shot at Abbots Ripton Crossing which is unfortunately no longer useable due to the crossing being now permanently closed. Yes i was aware of it being closed but i was curious to see if good photos or videos were still good there or not.

The village of Abbots Ripton lies on the B1090, a minor road that runs from St Ives to the south-east to a junction with the B1043, north-west of the parish, close to the A1(M) motorway and just south of Sawtry.
