Abstract

An archaeological excavation was undertaken across New Court and in the Master's Garden of Corpus Christi College, Cambridge, during the installation of an electricity substation and associated cable trenching. Although the exposures were limited in extent, structural remains associated with a number of former college buildings were encountered. These included the chapel (1579-1823), bakehouse (c. 1474-1823) and tennis court (c. 1569-1823). Also encountered were remains associated with the medieval St Bernard's Hostel and post-medieval Dolphin Inn. All of these structures were demolished when present-day New Court was established
