Clare Memorial Court

This court is an extension of Clare College, situated across the river Cam, in Queen's Road. It was designed by Sir Giles Scott and dedicated in 1926, and was conceived as a memorial to the Clare men who lost their lives in the First World War. The monumental arch is pierced to accommodate a large bell and carries the names of Clare men who died in both World Wars. This view is as you leave the Court and I thought the architecture of the arch quite beautiful.
