Cambridge Colleges and their Gardens
When I wrote a book about Cambridge and its colleges some years ago I discovered there were probably more professional gardeners per square acre in Cambridge than almost anywhere else (OK I'll give you Oxford!) Most of these gardens are open to the public but they are seldom visited and they are very little known. How many people are aware that a positive paradise complete with ducks and a large lake lies on the other side of a drab wall near the central bus station?
This talk is the equivalent of walking through the back of the wardrobe into a series of secret gardens. It also provides a fascinating glimpse into the history of the university and some of the famous names that once walked its streets.
A good introduction to Cambridge and its colleges.
