WHITTLESEY

This article appears in Volume V28, Page 616 of the Encyclopedia Britannica.

Encyclopedia Britannica - Main :: WAT-WIL
WHITTLESEY , a market town in the Wisbech parliamentary division of Cambridgeshire, England, 54 M. E. of
Peterborough
 , between that city and
March
 , on the
Great
  Eastern railway. Pop. of urban
district
  (1901) 3909. It lies on a gentle
eminence
  in the flat fen country, and the fine Perpendicular tower and spire of the church of St Mary are a landmark from far. A little to the north is the
great
  artificial cut carrying the waters of the
river Nene; and the neighbourhood is intersected with many other navigable " drains." To the
south
 -west is the
tract
  known as Whittlesey Mere, 6 m. distant from the town, in Huntingdon-shire. It was a lake until modern times, when it was included in a
scheme
  of drainage. The so-called Whittlesey
Wash
 , in the neighbourhood of the town, is among several tracts in the fens which are perennially flooded. St Mary's church is principally Perpendicular, but has Norman and Decorated portions; the church of St Andrew is also Decorated and Perpendicular. The town has manufactures of bricks and tiles, and a considerable agricultural
trade
 .
