Heidi Allen, the South Cambridgeshire MP, appeared on BBC's Newsnight last night talking about yesterdays "momentous events" when Theresa May took over as PM. 

The MP has supported Mrs May since she decided to stand for prime minister and feels like the Conservative party has been "reborn".

So I had a rather special assignment this morning. 

I was taken up into the sky to get a birds eye view of a Wimblington close to March. 

I was told to look out for a special field... and this is what I saw....

Can you see it yet?

It's a "giant" maze created to look like the BFG from Roald Dahl's famous book. 

For the past year excavation work has been going on at Must Farm in Whittlesey to unearth the best preserved Bronze Age settllement ever found in the UK. 

You can see just what has gone on below.

"Extraordinary" Bronze Age artefacts, uncovered at Must Farm quarry in Whittlesey, will eventually return to Cambridgeshire to be put on display. 

Dubbed the "Pompeii of the Fens", the excavation near Peterborough has surpassed all expectation.

The quarry will be back-filled, but items will return to Flag Fen once they've been preserved.

The Chief Executive of Historic England, Duncan Wilson, says "we want to keep to keep the stuff as close to where it came from as possible".

Duncan Wilson, chief executive of Historic England, said: "This has transformed our knowledge of Bronze Age Britain.

"Over the past 10 months, Must Farm has given us an extraordinary window into how people lived 3,000 years ago."

"Now we know what this small but wealthy Bronze Age community ate, how they made their homes and where they traded.

"Archaeologists and scientists around the world are learning from Must Farm and it's already challenged a number of longstanding perceptions."

Must Farm in Whittlesey was named best discovery at the 2016 British Archaeological Awards.

Millions of pounds of taxpayers' money was wasted on a contract outsourcing the care of older and mentally ill people, investigators find.

We're now returning to the story of the Bronze Age discovery in the county.

After the fire in the ancient village in Whittlesey the buildings sank into a river which has helped preserve them.  

Evidence, including tree-ring analysis of the oak structures, has suggested the circular houses were still new and had only been lived in for a few months.

The homes were, however, well equipped with pots of different sizes, wooden buckets and platters, metal tools, saddle querns (stone tools for grinding grains), weapons, textiles, loom weights and glass beads.

Archaeologists say beads found at the site originally came from the Mediterranean or Middle East.

A letter has been sent footballers from Cambridge United, external asking them to take part in a fundraising event for two players who were seriously injured in a crash in Newmarket. 

Shaun Whiter, who plays for Newmarket Town, had both legs amputated following the collision on 1 July. He friend Joey Abbs (pictured), who plays for Soham Town, was also seriously injured.

The letters says "as members of the local 'football family' we are sure that everyone wants to help these two men and their families in some way."

They're hoping to involve teams like Cambridge City, Soham Town Rangers, Newmarket Town and Fulbourn in the match to be played at the end of August or the beginning of September.

We'll have more news from the findings at "Britain's Pompeii" at little later... but first, it's been confirmed that a historic pub in Cambridge won't re-open after a fire destroyed it in March. 

JD Weatherspoons says they haven't decided what to do with the Tivoli site yet - although they indicated in April they would re-build it. 

The fire broke out in the converted cinema in the middle of the night on 14 March, which left it structurally unsafe.

David Gibson, of the Cambridge Archaeological Unit, University of Cambridge, said the Whittesey site at Must Farm allowed researchers to "visit in exquisite detail everyday life in the Bronze Age".

"Domestic activity within structures is demonstrated from clothing to household objects, to furniture and diet," he said.

"These dwellings have it all, the complete set, it's a 'full house'.

What the excavation reveals:

• The people living here made their own high quality textiles, like linen.
• Other fabrics and fibres found include balls of thread, twining, bundles of plant fibres and loom weights which were used to weave threads together. 
• Animal remains suggest they ate a diet of wild boar, red deer, calves, lambs and freshwater fish such as pike. 
• There were areas in each home for storing meat and a separate area for cooking
• Even 3,000 years ago people seemed to have a lot of stuff. Each of the houses was fully equipped with pots of different sizes, wooden buckets and platters, metal tools, saddle querns (stone tools for grinding grains), weapons, textiles, loom weights and glass beads

I've been lucky enough to see the excavation work at Must Farm Quarry in Whittlesey up close. 

Everything was a lot bigger than I thought it would be and it was amazing seeing history being recorded right in front of my eyes.

Evidence of fine fabric-making, varied diets and vast trading networks has been found at Must Farm Quarry in Whittlesey during the 10-month dig.

The level of preservation at the site has been compared to that seen at Pompeii, a Roman city buried by ash when Vesuvius erupted in AD 79.

At least five circular houses raised on stilts above the East Anglian fens have been found.

The chair of Healthwatch Cambridgeshire Val Moore says there's "dismay and bewilderment" at the findings into the failed older peoples' contract for Cambridgeshire, external. 

She says "opportunities" have now been lost after the UnitingCare contract lasted for only eight months instead of the planned five years. 

She says there is now "less money in the budget to look after older people" because of the failings.

We told you earlier how investigators found millions of pounds of taxpayers' money was wasted on an NHS outsourcing contract. 

Under the £726m deal, UnitingCare was meant to provide care for older and mentally ill people in Cambridgeshire.

Two NHS groups came together to create UnitingCare - the Cambridgeshire and Peterborough NHS Foundation Trust and Cambridge University Hospitals NHS Foundation Trust. 

They've released a joint statement after a National Audit Office report, external found that the five year deal collapsed after only eight months when it ran into financial difficulties. 

 "We believe that the report is balanced and provides clarity. The report also recognises that we acted in the interests of local services during the close down of UnitingCare."

"Despite the contract ending we are pleased that the services UnitingCare put in place are continuing to make a positive impact for our patients."

An ancient village discovered at Must Farm Quarry in Whittlesey that's been dubbed "Britain's Pompeii" was just a few months old when it burnt down, it's been revealed. 

Analysis of wood used to build the settlement suggests it was only lived in for a short time before it was destroyed.

Despite this, archaeologists said the site gives an "exquisitely detailed" insight into everyday Bronze Age life.
