9 Bridges in Cambridge That You Shouldn't Miss

January 5, 2022 Ying Subia

Cambridge might be best known for its university, home to some of the world’s greatest minds (Milton, Darwin, Hawking, etc.). But there’s a vibrant theater and arts scene here as well, and you’ll find fantastic contemporary restaurants mixed in with traditional pubs. Climb the tower of Great St. Mary’s Church for sweeping views of the city.

I did both college tour and punting, so I could see the bridge from both inside and outside. I would recommend to walk on a bridge, architecture inside is amazing

Mathematical Bridge

Reviewed By JarosMar - Cambridge, United Kingdom

The bridge was designed by William Etheridge and built by James Essex in 1749. It has been rebuilt on two occasions, in 1866 and in 1905, but has kept the same overall design. It is a Grade II listed building connects two parts of Queens’ College. A popular myth is that the Mathematical Bridge was designed and built by Sir Isaac Newton without the use of nuts or bolts. Access is restricted only for the University of Cambridge members. To visit Queens College you need to buy a ticket for 3.50 pounds.
