Beautiful Newnham

The beauty of Newnham college is hidden behind brick walls - girls need to be protected from the outside world. But enter through the gates...
...and you are welcomed by roses, peonies, squirrels, and majestic red-brick buildings. And sometimes the faint melody of a flute or violin drifting through an open window.

There is true beauty on the inside, too. Winding stairs...
...and Victorian wallpaper by William Morris...
...and less winding stairs...
...and sunlight...
...and the ghost of a 19th century curly-haired girl in a pastel-colored muslin dress, reading a love letter by the window...
