Cambridge - Christ's College

Facing St Andrew's Street, some little way south of Jesus College, Christ's College, like St John's, was founded by Lady Margaret Beaufort (1505). Its foundation marked a step on the way towards the modern university, for students were allowed to attend lectures at Christ's without being members of the college. The buildings have been drastically modernized. The Chapel (dedicated in 1510) has paneling of 1703 and old stained glass.

Notable members of Christ's include Milton (who is supposed to have planted the mulberry tree which still grows in the garden) and the naturalist Charles Robert Darwin.
