Architect: MacCormac Jamieson Prichard

By British academic standards Trinity has lots of money, and decided many years ago that all its students should be able to live in college accomodation. As a result, a large complex was added to an existing Burrell's Field cluster of buildings. In order to preserve the garden on the other side of Bin Brook the buildings were squeezed in right next to the existing buildings.

A fairly typical 1960s house, designed by Patrick Hodgkinson, was torn down to accomodate the new buildings. This house had been built for Edgar Adrian when he stopped being Master of Trinity, and after he vacated it, the house was converted to three flats.
