How to pay a Mooring Charge Notice
Payments can be made online, by post or by phone.
Pay your Mooring Charge Notice
- telephone: 01353 665555 (using a debit or credit card)
- by post: send a cheque made payable to East Cambridgeshire District Council to East Cambridgeshire District Council, The Grange, Nutholt Lane, Ely, Cambridgeshire CB7 4EE, including your Mooring Charge Notice

To pay online or by telephone, please ensure you have your Mooring Charge Notice number available.
When to pay a MCN
If you have been issued with a MCN, a charge of £100 is payable (a further £100 Charge Notice will be issued for every 24-hour period that the charge is breached).
This is reduced to £70 if the charge is paid within 14 days of the MCN being issued.
If the mooring charge is not paid within 28 days, we can no longer accept payment and will commence debt recovery action, which will incur further costs.
How to appeal a MCN
Any appeals must be made in writing quoting the mooring charge notice number on the top right hand corner of the notice and date of issue to:
Communities and Partnerships Team, East Cambridgeshire District Council, The Grange, Nutholt Lane, Ely, Cambridgeshire, CB7 4EE
Appeals against a MCN should be made within 14 days from the date on which the MCN was issued, and supported with evidence. Decisions are made in writing within ten working days. Unsuccessful appeals received within 14 days will be granted a further 14 days to pay the reduced charge of £70.
