Product Information

It was widely believed that the flag was raised by George Washington's army on the 2 January 1776, at Prospect Hill in Charlestown (now part of Somerville), near his headquarters at Cambridge, Massachusetts, (across the Charles River to the north from Boston), which was then surrounding and laying siege to the British forces then occupying the city. [5] It is also stated that the flag was interpreted by British military observers in the city under commanding General Thomas Gage, as a sign of surrender. [6] [7] However, some scholars dispute the traditional account and conclude that the flag raised at Prospect Hill was probably the flag of Great Britain, [8] though subsequent research supports the contrary.

[29] It’s shameful for a Cambridge college to consider them as such.

All the data we use are derived either from publicly available sources, the DfE, UCAS or from information provided by applicants in their application. These three types of contextual data are presented to our academic assessors in the form of several ‘flags’. This system enables us to assess applicants holistically, and may result in ‘flagged’ applications receiving particularly careful attention during the initial application stage. These ‘flags’ are also used during the winter and summer ‘pooling’ stages of our admissions process, where applicant files are examined by other Colleges to ensure that the best applicants receive an offer of a place regardless of the College to which they applied or were allocated. Furthermore, some of these ‘flags’ have been used as part of our eligibility criteria for August Reconsideration Pool. Historic England is funding the project to create a management plan for the protection, understanding and enjoyment of Flag Fen and this historic landscape for generations to come. Week Two saw us starting the week by concentrating on uncovering and defining more of the timbers that make up the wooden causeway. In our last blog we described the challenges of doing this, as waterlogged wood is a delicate material requiring a great deal of care and attention to expose and clean. This regressive decision is of huge detriment to work to improve access, diversity and equality by so many at Caius over the past years.” With the bulk of the sediment removed we turned our attention to cleaning up the exposed wood, ready for it to be recorded. This process mainly involved making sure that the extent of every piece of timber could be clearly seen and using gentle sprays of water to both keep the wood wet and to remove any remaining sediment.
