About This Book

A guided exploration of Cambridge and Ely that blends architectural description, local history, and practical routes for visitors. It examines college courts, chapels, libraries, bridges, and university customs alongside town markets, parish churches, and civic memories, with particular attention to cathedral and collegiate art and monuments. Complementary chapters trace surrounding roads, ancient earthworks, fenland landscapes, and village curiosities, interweaving antiquarian notes and travel anecdotes. The work alternates close studies of buildings and artifacts with broader topographical and historical context to encourage on-foot discovery of both well-known sights and overlooked byways.
