Sunday in My City: Magdalene Street

In Cambridge, Magdalene College is pronounced ‘maudlin’. Don’t ask; a punt tour guide explained it to my parents and I recently, but I forget – something about the founder wanting it to sound like his name and this was a way around that rule…

At any rate, these pictures are not of the college, but the street that has some of the prettiest buildings in Cambridge.
