This sluice diverts flow from the River Great Ouse to the Ouse Washes Flood Storage Reservoir to prevent Earith from being flooded ...

Below is a picture of the Earith Suspension Bridge - known then as the Earith High Bridge. It was the second bridge as you leave Earith when heading towards Haddenham or Willingham.

Below is the old Seven Holes Bridge at Earith where there were seven sluices. The modern sluice now stands at the same location.

Below is the view (May 2011) from the sluice looking in the direction of the Denver Sluice and eventually the sea.


This is a monthly themed event where the children explore and relive historic situations, or visit different parts of the world, or have talent nights ..

All are welcome, and we aim it at Primary School children, but we also get some enthusiastic young people from Secondary School and adults!
It is free, and often we all get a chance to dress up in the costume of the era...

We finish with a moral or Christian ideal and an energetic song or two.
The events are held at Earith Primary School at 6.30pm for about an hour.

A team of Christians from different churches retelling and acting out Bible stories once a week during School Assemblies.
Open The Book offers a free programme of themed and dramatized Bible stories, each around 10 minutes long, that fit comfortably into assembly times in schools.
For more information on how this could work in your area please see the Open The Book Website.
