Yarwell has a Superfast broadband cabinet

Sat on the grass verge, waiting for a fibre connection from Wansford I think :-

 Before the cabinet itself landed :-

Fibre to the home in Wansford ?

Gigaclear are now digging in Apethorpe and look to be expanding their horizons to incorporate Wansford and Yarwell (Nassington too).

http://www.gigaclear.com/ has a "Progress in my community" tool where you can enter your postcode, drop down to select your address and register your interest.

Gigaclear's business model is to get about 30% or so of properties signed up before they commit to supply. "Signed up" means committed to taking the service as opposed to "expressing an interest".

There's a meeting scheduled for the end of the month :-

Q&A Broadband Event

Gigaclear's service provides a fibre-optic connection into homes and businesses, capable of very fast speeds and not dependent on distance from the telephone exchange or cabinet. No copper wire is involved and you don't need a phone line to have a Gigaclear connection - you can make phone calls over the fibre optic using equipment in your home etc but this will depend on power being available.

Unlike BT's service which is sold Wholesale via other ISPs, and other ISPs using BT wires (Talk Talk and Sky), the Gigaclear service is a single provider for the physical connection and the internet service - although they are developing methods to allow others to "re-sell" their service.

Here's a screenshot of their price comparison as of 11:00 21/01/2015 :-

The "Call Plan" in the Gigaclear services is actually the price of a Vonage VoIP telephone service, in other words if you want a land line phone over your Gigaclear fibre the price is £7/month and it includes bundled call time.
