Purls Bridge, a Fenland hamlet, lies quiet under the vast Cambridgeshire sky. It lies 8.6 km east of Chatteris (from Chatteris: bearing 85°T, OS grid TL 478 873), and is situated west-north-west of Pymoor village. The land hereabouts is a testament to the patient work of man, a flat expanse crisscrossed by drainage ditches that gleam like silver threads in the soft, diffused light, a light that seems to hold the very breath of the fens. The air, often carrying the faint, earthy scent of cultivated soil, speaks of generations who have coaxed sustenance from this reclaimed earth. Purls Bridge itself is a cluster of homes, unassuming yet enduring, where the quietude is broken only by the occasional cry of a curlew or the distant hum of agricultural machinery.
