Pidley – in Huntingdonshire (now part of Cambridgeshire), England – is a village north of St Ives. It is known as the home of the Pidley Mountain Rescue Team, a charity which does not actually carry out mountain rescue (the area is one of the flattest in the country), but raises money for people with disabilities.
