[461] Scroope Terrace occupies part of the ground of Newnham Manor. Like the other great benefactors of colleges, Lady Elizabeth Clare and Lady Margaret Beaufort, Lady Anne was three times married. Her mother was a Gonville. Corpus Christi College benefited by tithes and houses in the manors both of Girton and Newnham (p. 318). [462] Those who held that Grantchester and Cambridge were but one and the same town, told us that the principal part lay on the north, towards Girton, while Newnham Lane, beyond the mill, extended as far as Grantchester “the old Cambridge”: _Ad Neunhamiae vicum, ultra molendinam, que se longius promovebat versus Grantacestriam_.... (Caius). [463] It may be recorded here that Madame Bodichon’s scheme was for a college (_a_) _in_ Cambridge (_b_) with the same intellectual conditions and tests as applied to men and (_c_) free of denominationalism. A chapel was not erected at Girton till after 1895. Of Mme. Bodichon as a pioneer it has been said that she had the singular faculty for realising in her imagination exactly what she wanted, down to the last detail--the creative power. Her failing health for the last fourteen years of her life made impossible the active share in the work which had been so ungrudgingly undertaken by her between 1867 and 1877; but her interest extended to every student who went up to Girton, and she was at pains to know them and to find out from their conversation how the college might be improved. [464] This house, 74 Regent Street, had been hired by (Professor) Henry Sidgwick in the spring of the year at his own financial risk, and here Miss Clough came in September. [465] The names of the 16 men (one being a Frenchman) who first lectured to women at the university are treasured at Newnham. Six were S. John’s men, 4 Trinity, and the other colleges represented were Christ’s, Queens’, and Caius. They were: †F. D. Maurice. †W. W. Skeat. †J. E. B. Mayor. J. Peile. W. C. Green. M. Boquel. †Prof. Cayley. J. F. Moulton. †W. K. Clifford. J. Venn. †A. Marshall. Prof. C. C. Babington. T. G. Bonney. P. T. Main. G. M. Garrett, Mus.D. S. Taylor. Dr. (afterwards Sir) Michael Foster, Adam Sedgwick, Frank Balfour (all of the Physiological laboratory) H. Sidgwick, Mr. Archer-Hind, Dr. E. S. Shuckburgh, and Mr. Keynes were also among the earliest lecturers.
