Read MoreExploring Cambridge: Uncovering its Quirky Charms
Nestled along the tranquil River Cam, Cambridge is renowned for its prestigious university, stunning architecture, and rich history. Beyond its academic allure, this city holds a treasure trove of quirky facts and hidden gems that add a delightful twist to its story. Join us as we uncover some of the most intriguing and amusing facts about Cambridge. 1. Mathematical Bridge and its Ingenious Design One of Cambridge's iconic landmarks, the Mathematical Bridge, located at Queens' College, is renowned not just for its picturesque arches but also for its fascinating construction. Despite popular belief, the bridge wasn't designed by Sir Isaac Newton; instead, it was the work of William Etheridge in 1749. Its distinctive design, using straight timbers curved to form an arch, relies solely on physics rather than nails or bolts—a testament to the brilliance of mathematical engineering. 2. Corpus Clock: Time with a Twist Standing outside the Taylor Library at Corpus Christi College is the mesmerizing Corpus Clock, designed by John C. Taylor. What makes this timepiece unique is its unconventional display of time. The clock lacks hands or numbers, instead featuring a shimmering 24-carat gold disc with slits that mark the hours, minutes, and seconds. A fearsome grasshopper perches on top, symbolizing the relentlessness of time—a fitting tribute to Cambridge's academic rigour. 3. The Curious Case of Parker's Piece Cambridge's oldest park, Parker's Piece, has a peculiar claim to fame—it's where modern football rules were established. In 1848, students from various schools gathered here to form the Cambridge Rules, which laid the groundwork for the Football Association's official rules in 1863. Today, the park remains a popular spot for recreational activities and cultural events, embodying the city's sporting spirit and historical significance. 4. Fitzbillies and the Famous Chelsea Buns No visit to Cambridge is complete without indulging in a Chelsea Bun from Fitzbillies. These legendary pastries have been a Cambridge staple since the 1920s, known for their sticky sweetness and secret recipe. Legend has it that Stephen Hawking was a regular patron, adding a touch of cosmic charm to these delectable treats. Whether you enjoy them fresh from the oven or toasted, Fitzbillies' Chelsea Buns are a must-try for food enthusiasts and history buffs alike. 5. Ghostly Tales of St. John's College Cambridge's ancient colleges are not just repositories of knowledge but also harbour intriguing tales of the supernatural. St. John's College, founded in 1511, is rumored to be haunted by the ghost of Archbishop William Sancroft. Visitors and students have reported eerie sightings and unexplained phenomena, adding a spine-chilling layer to the college's illustrious history. Dare to explore its corridors after dusk for a ghostly encounter that's bound to send shivers down your spine.
