Queens' College is amongst the oldest and largest colleges of the University, founded in 1448 by Margaret of Anjou (the Queen of Henry VI, who founded nearby King's College), and has some of the most recognisable buildings in Cambridge. The college spans both sides of the river Cam, colloquially referred to as the "light side" and the "dark side", with the world famous Mathematical Bridge connecting the two. Queens' College has been a centre of learning for more than 550 years and its distinguished alumni include Desiderius Erasmus, Stephen Fry, Abba Eban and T. H. White. Also in the photo is a Victorian post box.
