A mound with a view |
Castle Street Cambridge CB3 0AJ United Kingdom +44 1223 32 2640 |
The River Cam was first bridged at what is now Magdalene College. The early town settlement relied on nearby Castle Hill as a defensive position. The Normans reinforced this in their famed motte and bailey style. The mound remains to this day, providing a splendid view across the city rooftops, spires and towers, and surrounding countryside. The site was restored by Oliver Cromwell's forces during the English Civil War (1642), and appropriately, at the foot of the mound lies Shire Hall, headquarters of Cambridgeshire County Council.

Large park and fair venue |
Victoria Avenue Cambridge CB4 1HA United Kingdom +44 (0)1223 36 9299 |
King John granted a fair here in 1211, in addition to one on neighbouring Stourbridge Common. For centuries the latter was more famous, with merchants coming from all over Europe, until its terminal decline in the early 20th century. Midsummer Fair, however, lives on. The Mayor of Cambridge proclaims it open and then throws pennies to the assembled children. A footpath east leads past the Museum of Technology and on, out of the city, towards Ely.

City centre park |
Parkside Cambridge CB1 1JF United Kingdom +44 1223 32 2640 |
Parker's Piece is the wide, public, square grass area just south of the city centre, overlooked by the University Arms Hotel, Gonville Hotel and Parkside swimming pool. The municipal authorities bought the land from Trinity College in 1613; at that time, college cook Edward Parker was leasing it for farming and his name has stuck. The Piece is the setting for several local fairs but really comes into its own in the summer months as informal venue for countless rounders games, cricket matches, football, and evening drinks. Visit the Cambridge and County Folk Museum on Castle Street to view a picture depicting the feast held on Parker's Piece to celebrate Queen Victoria's jubilee. Review © 2007, Wcities |
