Cambridge Map Art

Cambridge's medieval street pattern radiates from the market square, with colleges occupying vast walled precincts that fragment the urban fabric into distinct enclaves. The River Cam winds through the center, lined by the colleges' backs and punting meadows, before flowing northeast toward the Fens. The Backs—that strip of gardens and riverfront between the colleges and water—form the city's defining geographic spine.
