Description

In the background, the Senate House (left) and the Old Schools.

Caius Court and the Gate of Honour were designed by John Caius in the 1560s. The south side, shown here, was left open on the ground that it would be salubrious to let air into the court: N. Pevsner, The buildings of England: Cambridge, Harmondsworth 1970, p. 77
