Switch to Hybrid view and double-click the map to calculate distance for a running/ cycling/ rowing route... Site doesn't seem to "jump to" cambridge correctly using the GeoCode name, so the full URL above should zoom to Cambridge. | |||
Old rowing photos | |||
| |||
Can we identify the places in the photos? There's one which looks like a view of the Plough and crews going round Ditton (rowing to the start) but is "the finish line" Top Finish or somewhere else? A further challenge would be to identify the flag, which doesn't look much like a cat and buns. Any takers? (1 comment...) | |||

LMBC sometime claim to have invented the blazer. Looks like the Navy beat them to it. (1 comment...) | |||
Newspaper report on the 1888 Lents | |||
| |||
The far right column reports on the enquiry into the death of a rower in the 1888 Lent bumps. The myth is that it involved 2nd Trinity and the St John's BC and led to the folding of the former and 200 year censure of the latter (and the formation of Lady Margaret BC to avoid this ban). Unfortunately the truth is less spectacular - you have to ask whether bumps would still be taking place if the Coroner had directed the jury towards manslaughter. |
