Cambridge recent comments:

  • Mill Road Cemetery, maru (guest) wrote 17 years ago:
    My friend, Susan Richardson's family were caretakers of this site in the 1950's. I would walk home from school with her and go into the cemetery through the Norfolk St. entrance. We would pick dog daisies and place them on graves with no flowers. Her house was at the Mill Rd entrance of the cemetery, a grey flintstone building as I recall. I've often tried to find Susan but have had no luck.
  • The Cow, KeithRay wrote 18 years ago:
    In my day (1966-69) this was a real 'dive'! Some very odd 'ladies' frequented it, professional ladies I understand!
  • Hobson's Conduit, KeithRay wrote 18 years ago:
    Good concise description. The water still flows occassionally down the drains on either side of Trumpington Street
  • Real Tennis Club, KeithRay wrote 18 years ago:
    the buildings to the left are actually Clare College's squash courts. I agree it is the finest real tennic court in the world!
  • Former Regional Government Headquarters (RGHQ), keith ray (guest) wrote 18 years ago:
    Yes, this is indeed the war room. The more northerly part was built during WW2, the newer and larger part to the south was built as a Regional Seat of Government

  • Orchard Park housing estate, Dan (guest) wrote 18 years ago:
    Vast array of mean angular cheap looking little boxes built for foxes. All built on top of the remains of an Iron Age Village. One of the more important pieces of archaeology in Cambridge. Of course, now destroyed after perfunctory underfunded rescue archaeology. Oh well. Nice to know that we take such care of our history in this country.
  • Clare Bridge, KeithRay wrote 18 years ago:
    The bridge actually has only 13.8 stone balls! At a boozy dinner many years ago two undergraduates has bet how many balls there were. One said 14 and the other said it was less. Later that night he went to check and found there were indeed 14, so he spent the night cutting a small slice out of one ball in order to win the bet!
  • Flying Pig, Geoff (guest) wrote 18 years ago:
    Excellent local pub
  • Downing Site, Simon C (guest) wrote 18 years ago:
    Includes the Sedgwick Museum of Earth Sciences - a major collection of fossils including a full-sized cast of an Iguanodon, several original icthyosaur and pleasiosaur specimens, and also has a shop. On the left hand side of the site as you enter from Downing Street, up the steps with stone bears at the base. On the right hand side is the museum of Archaeology and Anthropology, with historic anthropological exhibits from all over the world. Nearby on Free School Lane is the small Whipple Museum of scientific instruments.
  • Lion Yard shopping centre, KeithRay wrote 18 years ago:
    Built on the site of the old Red Lion, one of the main coaching inns in Cambridge (demolished 1969). The size of the shopping centre and cark park gives some idea of just how large the Red Lion's coaching yard was.
  • Beer Island (Laundress Green), anna (guest) wrote 18 years ago:
    It was called "Laundress Green" when I was at Cambridge. Close to at least two pubs, it's a great place to hang out in the summer.
  • Trinity Fountain, Moi (guest) wrote 18 years ago:
    Best Fountain Ever.
  • Trinity Hall, Avery Court, tw (guest) wrote 18 years ago:
    Recently renamed Avery Court, after some guy who gave the Hall a new organ and a bunch of cash.
