TL4458 : Cambridge University Library

taken 6 years ago, near to Cambridge, Cambridgeshire, England

Cambridge University Library
Cambridge University Library
The University Library is located on the western edge of Cambridge city centre between Robinson College and Memorial Court, Clare College.
The current UL building was constructed between 1931 and 1934 under architect Giles Gilbert Scott, who also designed the neighbouring Clare Memorial Court (part of Clare College). It bears a marked resemblance to Scott's industrial architecture, a famous example of which is Bankside Power Station (the home of the Tate Modern). Its tower stands 157 feet (48 metres) tall, six feet shorter than the top of St John's College Chapel and ten feet taller than the peak of King's College Chapel.
