Modern Cambridge was founded by the Danes when they conquered Eastern England in 875; although just a couple of hundred years later the town was captured by the Saxons. In the Middle Ages Cambridge had a weekly market and people would come from all over Eastern England to buy and sell at a Cambridge fair.
Cambridge’s position on the river meant it prospered easily and products such as wine, salt, fish, and reeds were brought into Cambridge along the river.
