Medieval Cambridge - 2004

12th April 2004

Many of these pictures were taken of, or around King’s College, Cambridge. Young King Henry VI laid the foundation stone of ‘The King’s College of Our Lady and Saint Nicholas in Cambridge’ on Passion Sunday, 1441. The completion of the Chapel was made possible through the patronage of subsequent kings most conspicuously Richard III and Henry VII. The Chapel is the product of three separate periods of construction which were the result of interruptions to the building work during the Wars of the Roses.
