The former barracks (originally an RAF station) is to be developed as a new town. According to the developers' website "Waterbeach is the best brownfield site in the country. Three miles from the Cambridge Science Park with some of the most dynamic employment in the world, the development of Waterbeach will meet a demonstrable shortage of accessible accommodation in the north of the city, both from an expanding workforce and local residents who have lived here for generations."
