March
March is a Fenland market town and civil parish in the Isle of Ely region of Cambridgeshire, England. March was the county town of the Isle of Ely, which was a distinct administrative county in between 1889 and 1965. It is now the administrative centre of Fenland District Council. Much like various Fenland towns, March was originally an island surrounded by marshes. It occupied the 2nd largest 'island' in the Great Level. As the land drained, the town developed and grew as a trading and religious centre. It was also a small port before emerging as, in more recent times, a market town and an administrative and railway centre. March is set on the banks of the old course of the navigable River Nene, and today predominantly used by pleasure boats. The town's development happened most swiftly when it transformed into an essential train centre. It had a major junction in between the Great Eastern Railway and Great Northern Railway at March railway station, allowing for ease of access to and from London, Cambridge and Ely. In particular, March Royal Mail sorting office, previously a full post office dates from 1936, is unusual because it is among a few post offices that display the royal cypher from the brief reign of Edward VIII.
