Christ’s College is located in the centre of Cambridge, just off St Andrew’s Street.

The College was founded in 1505 by Lady Mary Beaufort, mother of Henry VII. Her coat of arms can be seen over the entrance to the college.

Some of the College’s original buildings remain, although much of the College was re-built in the 18th century.

Famous past students from Christ’s College include John Milton and Charles Darwin. The former is said to have planted the huge mulberry tree in the grounds.
