Talk:March, Cambridgeshire

message: I am not sure it is a very importatnt junction station. Actually I have never been there (just passed throught),but as far I know and from what can I see in some offcial railway maps ( and ), there is no junction in March. It is serviced by One and Central Train, but they both serviced it on the same line from Peterborought to Ely. I can not find  Great Eastern on the list of Train Operatin Companies. The GNER does not service March station (as far as I know). The list of connection stations do not include March. AnyFile 15:02, 5 March 2006 (UTC)
replies: text: It isn't today, but until the 1960s it was actually one of the biggest and most important marshalling yards in Europe. I'm surprised there isn't a separate article or at least a mention of this fact here, in fact. David Lion-West 00:05, 29 May 2006 (UTC)

message: Hi
anyone out there know anything as to the legend about the  devil amoungst the angels in the church roof at st wendreada's church? I know the bare bones of the story but would like to see if there is anyone out there who can shed some more light into the reason behind the devil in the roof amougst all those angels.
I do know that I was once told by a man who lived in March that the devil was there in the roof bacause, when the church was built that it was ment to be at a different spot and that the devil would destroy the foundations of the church at night. the devil then appeared to the workers and said that the land that they wanted to build on was not thier land to build a church upon but the devils own. when the church was built and later rebuilt. I suspect that this piece of folklore must have survived, and thus the devil was placed amoungst the angels too represent this. Just wonder if someone can clarify this, and even fill me in on anything that they might know as I am just not sure if I am correct.

Hey, I happen to live in March, and there is a devil in the roof. Also the story about the devil is meant to be true and there is a complete reference in an old book I may have about it. It was as far as i remember, the towns people removing the stones as they didn't want the church there, but for later generations they were the devil. There is a stone in March to show where it would have been placed. Namikaze 21:10, 23 January 2007 (UTC)

message: I believe March appeared twice in the Domesday Book. Two hamlets either side of the River Nene, one called Merche (for marsh), and one called Mercha (also for marsh). When the two hamlets merged, Merche and Mercha became March. Domesday book reference to Merche and Mercha CliveNorton (talk) 19:48, 2 August 2008 (UTC)
