Addenbrooke’s Hospital, Cambridge


The hospital in Cambridge was founded following a bequest by Dr John Addenbrooke, a prominent physician of the time and a Fellow of St Catharine’s College, who died in 1719. Building began in 1740; the hospital grew rapidly in the 20th century and is now considered one of the foremost hospitals in the UK. It moved to a new site to the south-east of Cambridge in 1976, and the old site is used by Cambridge University, housing the Judge Business School. The view shows the frontage of the hospital, facing Trumpington Street. The picture was drawn by R B Harraden Jnr and etched by Elizabeth Byrne
