The Clock




The College clock is housed in one of the oldest buildings in Trinity: King Edwards Gate, otherwise known simply as the clock-tower. This gate originally formed a grand entrance to Kings Hall, a foundation which was dissolved in 1546 and joined with Michaelhouse to found the new College of the Holy and Undivided Trinity.
 


More about the clock

The Chapel and Choir




Trinity College Chapel was built during the reigns of Mary and Elizabeth I, and was intended to be the place where the Master, Fellows and Scholars of the College made their daily acts of worship, as an integral part of their life and study.

College Gardens




Trinity College gardens extend for 36 acres including the obviously well known areas such as Great Court, Trinity Backs and the plot of grass outside Great Gate where Newtons Apple tree stands.
