Remembering the lost streets and pubs of cambridge, a city losing its character to corporate blandness.

Holy Trinity Church


This photograph shows the small passageway leading to marks and spencers, the churches in the city center show how much things have changed by the way the buildings around them almost swalow them up, I suppose the colleges dont own the land so they have to build around them, marks and sparks is where victoria cinema used to be, the facade of the cinema remains but everything behind it is new, I cant remember what the passageway used to be like before m&s, it might have gone all the way through to market hill.It does look a bit macabre as there are tomb stones stuck in the wall facing out so its like you are stepping on dead people as you go along the path, I've been told by a reliable source, THE SURVEYOR , that it was a common thing to do and he doesnt think there are any bodies there but it still doesnt feel right, picture to follow.
