Locations offering Bucksmore Cambridge
The world-famous Corpus Christi College was established in 1352, making it one of the oldest colleges of the University of Cambridge. The location is a beautiful and inspiring place that never fails to impress students.
Situated in the centre of Cambridge, Corpus is the idea location for older, more mature students looking to explore this historic city.
Clare College is the second oldest Cambridge University College. The beautiful First Court was built in 1326 before the college expanded across the River Cam. The main entrance to Clare is right next to King’s College Chapel and only a few metres from the main King’s Parade road.
