In Cambridge University’s early days, Hugh de Balsham, Bishop of Ely, set up a scholars’ foundation at what is now St John’s College. In 1284, this foundation moved south to a site beside St Peter’s Church (now Little St Mary’s Church) and Peterhouse was established: the first Cambridge college. The college buildings and grounds, stretching away from Trumpington Street, are attractive, yet the only visible trace of the original buildings is in the walls of the dining hall at the rear of Old Court. Back by the road, the mid-18th century Fellows Building housed poet Thomas Gray's bedroom. Famous alumni include Kingsley Amis, Lord Kelvin and Frank Whittle.
