Cambridge is the UK's most active graticule, and although most of its activity is based around Cambridge itself, new hashers and meetups in any part of the graticule are always welcome.

==The area==
  
The Cambridge graticule covers not only the county of Cambridgeshire, but also parts of Hertfordshire, Essex, Suffolk, Norfolk and Lincolnshire. Most of it is land, but the Norfolk coastline falls just inside its northern edge, and, further west, it includes The Wash in Lincolnshire. Much of the terrain is quite flat, with some hillier land in the south, and much of it is farmland.

Due to the symmetry of coordinates about the prime meridian, the neighbouring [[Northampton, United Kingdom|Northampton]] graticule, to the west, will never provide a closer hashpoint than our own local one.  However, the hashpoints in the two graticules occasionally fall quite close together near the meridian, offering a good opportunity for a [[Multihash|Double geohash]].

This {{Today's location|lat=52|lon=0|text=graticule}} covers the part of the [[United Kingdom]] (UK) from 52° to 53° latitude, and from 0° to 1° longitude.  It contains the city of Cambridge, and several smaller towns including King's Lynn, Wisbech, Thetford, Ely, Newmarket and Haverhill.
  
==Future plans==
+
Cambridge has enjoyed several spikes of activity over the last few years, and until [[Sheffield, United Kingdom|Sheffield]] and then [[Norwich, United Kingdom|Norwich]] overtook it in 2011 (although we have since re-overtaken Sheffield), it was the UK's most active graticule. Although most of the early activity was based around the city, we are now fortunate enough to have active geohashers to the north and east as well, and new hashers and meetups in any part of the graticule are most definitely welcome. Meetups are always good!
''None currently. Please do edit this page if you're planning a geohash in (or from) this graticule.''
 
  
==Past activity==
+
The Cambridge graticule covers not only the county of Cambridgeshire, but also parts of Hertfordshire, Essex, Suffolk, Norfolk and Lincolnshire. Geohashers reaching points in all these counties can claim a [[reverse regional achievement]] for this graticule. Most of the graticule is land, but the Norfolk coastline falls just inside its northern edge and, further west, it includes The Wash in Lincolnshire.  Much of the terrain is quite flat, with some hillier land in the south, and much of it is farmland. As Cambridge itself is arguably the [http://www.tfw.org.uk/tp-cycling.php "cycling capital of England"], the graticule offers excellent opportunities for [[bicycle geohash]]ing.
  
Cambridge was, early in 2009, the UK's [http://dawidi.dyndns.org/geohashing/MostActiveGraticules/ most active] and [http://dawidi.dyndns.org/geohashing/MostSuccessfulGraticules/ most successful] graticule.  However, most of this activity was due to [[User:Benjw|Benjw]], who then had to spend all summer playing at being a student, without much time for hashing, so we've kind of slipped down the rankings again since then.
+
Due to the symmetry of coordinates about the prime meridian, the neighbouring [[Northampton, United Kingdom|Northampton]] graticule, to the west, will never provide a closer hashpoint than our own graticule, no matter how close to the border you are.  However, if the day's coordinates fall close to the meridian, then the hashpoints in the two graticules will be quite close together, offering a good opportunity for a [[Multihash|Double geohash]]. Indeed, at this latitude, it even becomes possible to be in the uncertainty circle of both hashpoints simultaneously if the longitude is less than +/- 0.000100° -- this can be expected about once every 25 years.
  
In the latter half of the year, only one geohash has been attempted, but plans are afoot to be a tiny bit more active again.

The highest number of expeditions in a calendar year was the 81 during 2015, and the highest number in a month was 13, in August 2015.  A few times, Cambridge has been the most active graticule in the world for a particular month, earning us some shiny ribbons. In 2015 Cambridge came third in the world for expeditions and coordinates-reached. There was stiff competition with [[Mannheim, Germany]] who came second in these categories. Congratulations to them!
** [[User:Benjw|Benjw]] also visited and photographed this spot on 23 April, on the way home from that day's expedition.
 
  
* [[2009-03-28 52 0|28 Mar 2009 (Sat)]]: Another '''Saturday meetup''', but only [[User:Benjw|Benjw]] was there.  A planted field, off a public footpath in Ousden, SE of Newmarket.  There was hail and squelchy mud.

Norfolk 39.9%

Hertfordshire 0.28%

This graticule covers the part of the United Kingdom (UK) from 52° to 53° latitude, and from 0° to 1° longitude. It contains the city of Cambridge, and several smaller towns including King's Lynn, Wisbech, Thetford, Ely, Newmarket and Haverhill.

Cambridge has enjoyed several spikes of activity over the last few years, and until Sheffield and then Norwich overtook it in 2011 (although we have since re-overtaken Sheffield), it was the UK's most active graticule. Although most of the early activity was based around the city, we are now fortunate enough to have active geohashers to the north and east as well, and new hashers and meetups in any part of the graticule are most definitely welcome. Meetups are always good!

The Cambridge graticule covers not only the county of Cambridgeshire, but also parts of Hertfordshire, Essex, Suffolk, Norfolk and Lincolnshire. Geohashers reaching points in all these counties can claim a reverse regional achievement for this graticule. Most of the graticule is land, but the Norfolk coastline falls just inside its northern edge and, further west, it includes The Wash in Lincolnshire. Much of the terrain is quite flat, with some hillier land in the south, and much of it is farmland. As Cambridge itself is arguably the "cycling capital of England", the graticule offers excellent opportunities for bicycle geohashing.

Due to the symmetry of coordinates about the prime meridian, the neighbouring Northampton graticule, to the west, will never provide a closer hashpoint than our own graticule, no matter how close to the border you are. However, if the day's coordinates fall close to the meridian, then the hashpoints in the two graticules will be quite close together, offering a good opportunity for a Double geohash. Indeed, at this latitude, it even becomes possible to be in the uncertainty circle of both hashpoints simultaneously if the longitude is less than +/- 0.000100° -- this can be expected about once every 25 years.

Expeditions and Plans

Expeditions in this graticule are listed below in reverse date order. Here is a complete list of expeditions in Cambridge (52, 0) without descriptive details.

If you're planning an expedition, please add to this section. People actively watch it and they might try to join you.

2019

  • 25 May 2019 (Sat): Mouseover Day: East of Brandon and south of the B1107, on a forest track in Suffolk, UK. Sourcerer reached the hashpoint at 3:30 and again at 4pm.
  • 21 May 2019 (Tue): A barley field near a wind farm near Stanhoe, Norfolk, UK. Sourcerer arrived just before 4pm to mark Geohashing Day.
  • 15 March 2019 (Fri): Just off Main Street in Hardwick, with the 52,-0 hashpoint only about half a mile away. Benjw visited in the afternoon.
  • 17 January 2019 (Thu): A pavement in Cambridge, and a mere 450 metres from Benjw's house; aiming for a 4pm meetup.

2018

  • 20 September 2018 (Thu): Right on a footpath just off the Newmarket Road in east Cambridge. Benjw will bike there at some convenient time (either to meet up with other hashers, or to avoid the rain).
  • 14 June 2018 (Thu): Benjw investigated a bush by the guided busway stop at Oakington.
  • 21 May 2018 (Mon): Sourcerer failed to reach an arable point west of the Great Ouse, West Lynn, Norfolk, UK.
  • 9 January 2018 (Tue): In the middle of the road in Broad Green, SE of Newmarket. Benjw intends to hit the hashpoint late morning.

The highest number of expeditions in a calendar year was the 81 during 2015, and the highest number in a month was 13, in August 2015. A few times, Cambridge has been the most active graticule in the world for a particular month, earning us some shiny ribbons. In 2015 Cambridge came third in the world for expeditions and coordinates-reached. There was stiff competition with Mannheim, Germany who came second in these categories. Congratulations to them!
