The office will be closed until further notice. For more detailed information, please click on ‘Coronvirus’ in the news section.

CLOSED PLAY AREAS

Please note that the City of Ely Council has taken the decision to close the children’s play parks which are under its control (please note that a number of play areas are controlled by ECDC).

This is not a decision which has been taken lightly but there are concerns that social distancing cannot be maintained and that the potential for the virus to live on the play equipment for a substantial time cannot be mitigated.

Please do not climb over fences or gates, but respect the unfortunate need to close these facilities.

The Parish comprises of the City of Ely and the villages of Prickwillow, Stuntney, Queen Adelaide, Chettisham and Shippea Hill.

The Council has been in existence since local government was re-organised in 1974 and it was at that time Her Majesty Queen Elizabeth granted Ely its City status.
