Cambridge - Trinity Lane looking N

Cambridge - Trinity Lane looking N
On the left is the E side of the Grade I-listed Bishop's Hostel of Trinity College, built 1669-1671 but restored by A. W. Blomfield 1874-78; according to the listing, the windows are C19 (although presumably intended to reproduce the original style) and the dormers are late C18 alterations or replacements of the originals: www.historicengland.org.uk/listing/the-list/list-entry/11... ; RCHM: www.british-history.ac.uk/rchme/cambs/pp209-244 ; illustration of the N side : www.british-history.ac.uk/rchme/cambs/plate-212 .

To the right of the hostel is the early C17 Nevile's Gate, moved here in 1876; in the background is the S side of Trinity College's Great Court, built c.1600 but probably reusing some older material, with later repairs including the rebuilding of the chimneys.

David Slater (Spoddendale) has particularly liked this photo
