The photo on the left shows the Church Alley taken from St Andrews Churchyard looking towards Clay Street. On the left is the boundary wall to St Andrews House, now part of St Andrews Park, and on the right is the Boundary wall to the Recreation Ground. It is shown on a map of 1656 and may have existed earlier than this, the earliest we have been able to trace it's name is from a map of 1876. It is believed that the Alley follows the coarse of a tunnel, possibly in a connection with the earlier Monastic buildings that were once in Soham.

The photo on the top right is the Village Sign as you enter Soham from Ely situated on the Shade with an identical one at the other approach into Soham from Fordham, situated at Downfields.
Three Soham Village College pupils - Lucy Mathews, Jayne Harris and Andrews Scott - designed and made the signs as part of their GCSE technology examination, first researching alternative designs, materials and construction techniques before coming up with the final sign.
Depicted on the signs are three Soham landmarks - the Steelyard at the Fountain public house, St Andrews Church and Downfields windmill - and a vivid reminder of the wartime drama when a train carrying explosives blew up at the Soham railway station. Soham Benevolent Association commissioned the signs to mark their 40th anniversary. Above left is the original design used for the signs and on the right is a photo of the original mould used.

The photo on the left shows the Steelyard or Weighing Machine on the Fountain public house, An iron or steel lever, ''The Steelyard'' was hung from a strong bracket projecting from the wall of the weigh-house, or in some cases from a horizontal pole resting on two uprights like a football goal. The short arm of the lever, about a foot long, was provided with a hook and chains, from which was hung the object to be weighed. The longer arm, about 10 feet in length, moved in a slot or loophole in the wall of the weigh-house. It was graduated and numbered like a rule, and provided with a sliding weight. this was moved till it balanced the object at the other end, and its position then gave the weight of the object. The ''engine'' as it was called, was in fact similar to the steelyards that were once in use in butchers shops.

The photo on the right shows the old iron foot bridge across Brook Dam, connecting The Causeway to Brook Dam Lane leading to the Town. Photo taken from The Causeway looking towards Brook Dam Lane, with the duck pond on the left. The only other way to enter the Town from the South would be via Sand Street then Stone bridge.
The photo on the left was taken in July 1937 in Soham, showing the overturned car of a Mr E. P. Jones, Dairyman.
