Lanuarie Anno Edward 1 It appcareth as well bv their Chartci w' . C that it hath been one of the tonnes with a Bislioppcs Sea. Also a mir and a market cvcrie daic in the week. . , . . Ill this time Queen Eli/abcth grantee Charter confirming former ones. Castle aito priory of Clare. WITHIN easy access from Cambridge and Bury St. Edmunds lies a small and obscure town in the Fens, which, despite its present decayed aspect, has a history of some importance. The current of time has hurried by and le...ft Clare behind, and for centuries it has been stagnating and living more in its past than in its present. Only market-day periodically awakens the slumbrous town and blows the breath of modern life into it ; for the rest, it is typical of many English places which have had to give way to new centres of industry and enterprise. But the little town remains bright and inviting, despite its situation amid the "glooming flats" of the eastern marshland. Long level lanes, far- extending meadows stretching monotonously to the coast, land cut up by dykes, lazy streams slowly and imperceptibly finding their way to the sea these make up the characteristic scenery and environment.
