Listed buildings in Cambridge (west)

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Elmside by E. S. Prior (now part of Clare Hall) is an example of a grade-II-listed Arts and Crafts house in this area.

There are 833 listed buildings (as of December 2023) in the district of Cambridge, England.[1] This list summarises the 87 in the west and north-west suburbs, in the area west of the Backs and broadly between Huntingdon Road, Queen's Road, Barton Road and the M11. This was the West Fields, which largely passed into the ownership of the Cambridge colleges, particularly St John's, after enclosure in 1805, and was little developed until after 1870;[2][3] the older population centres of Castle Hill and Newnham[4] are excluded from this list. The major roads are Madingley Road running east–west and Grange Road running north–south. There are 18 buildings listed at grade II*, with the remainder at grade II; there are no grade-I-listed buildings in this area.

Many of the listed buildings and structures are associated with the university, its colleges and the theological colleges. The earliest university building was the Observatory, built north of Madingley Road in 1822–24 on a green-field site, then far from the town.[5] In the 1870s, several new colleges were founded in the south of the area: Newnham College (1875), Ridley Hall (1877) and Selwyn College (1879), followed in the 1890s by theological colleges to the north: Westminster College (1896) and St Edmund's House (1896).[2] Clare College was the first to build accommodation west of Queen's Road with Memorial Court (from 1923), and the University Library moved to a new building on an adjacent site off West Road in 1931–34.[4][6] Development recommenced in the 1950s; the university built a large arts site off Sidgwick Avenue from 1954, and several new university colleges were founded within the area: Churchill College (1959), New Hall (now Murray Edwards College; 1962), Clare Hall (1966) and Robinson College (1977). Established colleges also added sites: Gonville and Caius's Harvey Court by the University Library (1960–62), and Corpus Christi's Leckhampton site west of Grange Road (1963–64).[7]

A few listed villas pre-date the Observatory, the earliest being 35 Madingley Road of around 1800.[8] Residential development in the area accelerated in the late 19th century, when substantial detached family houses set in large plots of 0.5–1.0 acres or more were built to accommodate married academics and well-off professionals, often designed by well-known London-based architects, including M. H. Baillie Scott, J. J. Stevenson and E. S. Prior.[2][9] Most of the houses are traditional in appearance, including Arts and Crafts and Queen Anne styles.[2][4] Plots were leased under restrictive terms that required the development of expensive high-quality houses, often specifying the use of red brick (rather than the local pale gault brick) with a tiled roof.[2][10] The White House, Cambridge's first house in the International Style, was built in 1930–31 in the north-west of the area on Conduit Head Road, which has a group of 1930s Modernist houses.[11] The most-recent listed building, and the only listed commercial building in this area, is the Schlumberger Gould Research Centre of 1982–84, a high-tech structure by Michael Hopkins.[12]

Notes and references

[edit]
  1. ^ Dates in Bradley & Pevsner are preferred where there is a conflict.
  2. ^ The precise location is given first as a grid reference, based on the British national grid reference system (or OSGB36) of the Ordnance Survey, and second as World Geodetic System 84 coordinates, used by the Global Positioning System. Data derive from the grid references at Historic England's National Heritage List for England.
  3. ^ The listing states the architect was Blomfield and the date 1882–89, but this is contradicted in Bradley & Pevsner (which gives 1932) and Selwyn College's website (which gives 1939).
  4. ^ Four storeys according to Bradley & Pevsner; the listing notes two storeys plus attics.
  5. ^ The listing states the gate screen is wrought iron; according to Bradley & Pevsner the gates are bronze.
  6. ^ At the time of the listing, two of the non-projecting bays had gables, but the Images of England photograph of 2003 shows four gables.
