The Monumental Inscriptions for the churchyard of SS Cyriac and Julitta, 1711-1929 can be found in the Cambridge Record Office and are available, in microfiche form, from the Cambridgeshire Family History Society Bookstall.
"The church of St. Cyriac aud St. Julitta is a plain embattled structure of debased Gothic character, consisting of a small chancel, nave with three small and low transeptal chapels, and an ancient 15th century tower, terminating in an embattled polygon lantern and containing 6 bells: in 1878 a faculty was obtained for the demolition of the church, which has however, been left standing up to the present time. The registers date from the year 1559, there being separate registers for the two churches up to the 17th century, when the benefices were united by Act of Parliament."
