Teversham
Teversham is a small village in Cambridgeshire, England, about 2 miles (3 km) from Fulbourn and about 3 miles (5 km) from the centre of Cambridge.
Teversham is a small parish that built up just to the south of the Cambridge to Newmarket road; it had only 27 villagers at the time of the Domesday Book in 1086. A quiet arable farming village during medieval times, its recent history has been tied up with that of Cambridge with its growth helping to feed the neighbouring city.
Cambridge City Airport was developed on land in the north-west of the parish as Marshall's car and aircraft business grew in the 1930s.
Known in early medieval times as Teueresham or Teuresham, the village's name perhaps means "village of a man named Tefer".
At the start of the 19th century Teversham was home to around 35 families, and around 155 people, rising to 238 by 1851. Some emigration, partly to Australia and the US, followed during the 1850s, but numbers recovered, to rise to 286 in 1871. The population was comparatively stable at 250 during the first half of the 20th century.
Post-war building caused rapid growth to 534 residents by 1951, 789 in 1961, 868 by 1981, 1010 by 1986. Further development then doubled the population to 2452 in 1991.
With a parish population of 2665 at the time of the 2001 census, in 2006 the population of Teversham was estimated to be around 2,050, according to the Cambridgeshire Survey. It is a significant growth from 1957, when the population was 780, according to surveys at the time. Around 2005 a housing development took place which greatly increased the population in time for the survey.[citation needed] At the 2011 census the population 2,943.
The church is considered 'ancient', dating back to an estimated 910, and even by the time of the Domesday survey was one of the few listed in Cambridgeshire as a whole. It has been dedicated to All Saints since its reconsecration in 1393. The church consists of a chancel, an aisled nave, west tower, and south porch. The earliest parts of the present building and its octagonal font date from the early 13th century.
