It is! It's been under construction for ages.. Certainly beforehand my last visit. Not sure when it was finally finished. Much better than covering fields IMHO.

Brilliant. Car parks are ugly places, and cars bake in the sunshine (at better times of year, obviously).
Why not make them more useful by producing a bit of 'leccy and provide some shade at the same time.

Free to park, too! I go there a couple of times a year and ride to Cambridge & Grantchester for a family meet-up and have watched the progress of this.
Yes, great idea that more places should follow.

That car park in St Ives is a brilliant idea.

I've got solar panels. I'm having a bit of trouble trying to get my bike on the roof for a pic.
