Railways are well known for having their own dictionary as shown
by the way they spell station names- e.g. Whittle sea for
whittlesey, Fulbourne for Fulbourn

Never rely on railway spelling

Dam spill chucker Whittlesea for Whittlesey

Whittlesea was how the place was spelt when the railway came.
Manea still uses the same ending.

Not to mention Judea.

I wouldn't mention it either. It's pronounced completely differently for a
start.
