Trumpington Inclosure
The houses Nos. 172-176 Hills Road are not and never were part of the Station Estate. A piece of land of approximately 20 acres was allotted to the College by the Trumpington Inclosure Commissioners in 1801. This replaced land in the Trumpington fields which was part of the field land of the Vine Estate purchased by the College in 1509.

The land was let in one lease with the houses in St Andrew's Street (now Bradwell's Court) on a lease of 21 years until 1795, when at the request of the lessee the lease was divided into two, one of 40 years for the houses and one of 21 years for the land. The reason was doubtless in order to obtain a longer lease for the house property, as Colleges were not permitted to lease lands for a longer period than 21 years.

The allotment made by the Trumpington Inclosure Commissioners in 1801 consisted entirely of agricultural land in Brooklands field. It was the plot nearest to the northern boundary of the Trumpington land and ran from the brook leading from Nine Wells to Cambridge on the west to the Hills Road on the east, but the frontage on the Hills Road was very short being only about half of the width of the plot at its western end. When Barnwell Fields were enclosed in 1807, 5A. 2R. 2P. adjoining this strip on the north were allotted to the College in lieu of the field land belonging to the Vine Estate in Barnwell fields, but this plot adjoined only the western half of the Trumpington allotment, and had no frontage on the Hills Road.

About 2/3rds of the land was severed from the portion with the road frontage by the construction of the Eastern Counties Railway in 1850 and a further strip was later acquired by the Great Northern Railway. Henceforward the access from the road was only by two separate private level crossings, and so the land was not very profitable. In 1896 the College agreed to sell it to Trinity College, the owners of the land adjoining it to the south and west.

Proposals for building on the road frontage began as early as 1877, but the houses were not actually built until 1887

Title to the land in the Station Road area stems from the Barnwell Inclosure Award 1808-1809.

In 1846 the College agreed to sell land to the Eastern Counties Railway Company for a station and for the approved road.
The conveyance was signed in 1850 [JCAD/3/CAM/STA/GEN/1/1850].

The College then gave notice to its agricultural tenants and started to let the land to developers. The occupiers in 1847 were Mr Dixon, Mr Gotobed (most of his land was sold to the Great Eastern Railway Co in 1874) and Mr George Bullen (who farmed the land on the south side of Station Road).

Land near the station was leased to Robert Sayle on 7 March 1859 [JCAD/3/CAM/STA/GEN/1/1859]
This lease was determined on 22 March 1873 [JCAD/3/CAM/STA/GEN/1/1873] and the land sold to the Great Eastern Railway Company.

On 4 June 1874 Arthur John Gray was granted a lease of the first of his houses 'Salisbury Villa' built on the north side of Station Road [JCAD/3/CAM/STA/GEN/1/1874]
This lease included land afterwards compulsorily purchased by the Cambridge Improvement Commissioners to make Tenison Road.

6 May 1876 Arthur John Gray surrendered to the College part of Gotobed's allotment in order that the College might sell it to the Great Eastern Railway Company [JCAD/3/CAM/STA/GEN/1/1876/1].

On 24 December 1888 Arthur John Gray renewed his lease of 1, 2, and 3 Salisbury Villas [JCAD/3/CAM/STA/GEN/1/1888]
When the lease was renewed it was found that Gray still held a square piece of land at the rear of the gardens of his houses, separate from them, with a frontage to the proposed new Tenison Road of 400 feet.

On 11 December 1885 the Notice of proposed purchase of land for the roadway under the Public Health Act 1875 was issued
The conveyance was signed on 9 July 1889.

1 November 1888 the College agreed with Arthur John Gray to pay him an annuity in the form of a remission of rent. Gray thereby surrendered 3150 square yards of land for the road.

On 14 March 1894 Gray surrendered to the College two pieces of land at the back of his houses Salisbury Villas and Arundel Villas. The first portion was in a lease dated 1874 and the second in a lease of Arundel Villas dated 1 November 1882. This land was then leased to developers to build houses facing Tenison Road and Tenison Avenue. This left Gray with 200 feet frontage on Tenison Road (the site of St Colette's School).

The College planned Tenison Avenue, leasing sites to builders, so that it was left with a piece of land extending as far as the Highsett houses. Mr Charles Armstrong, builder of some of the Tenison Avenue houses, took this on a yearly agreement in 1897 [JCAD/3/CAM/STA/GEN/1/1897].

Contains copies of autobiographical notes on his time at Jesus in the 1880s and copies of two draft chapters for a novel about St. Radegund.

Both are photocopies and possibly copied from larger works. Typewritten with handwritten corrections.

Copies of letters, photographs and choir manual relating to Scott's time as a choirboy at the College, owned by his great-granddaughter Angela Earland.

Land behind Salisbury Villas with an entrance to Tenison Road has been part of a number of developments:
It was leased as gardens to Salisbury Villas, Station Road
Then part of the land was leased to St Colette's School
Then it was leased to Cambridge Housing Society Limited along with part of the land belonging to the school [which moved over taking over the site of the Scout hut] to build George Pateman Court
The school then moved to Girton, its buildings were demolished and the land sold for housing and Eccleston Place was built

Its not always clear exactly where an individual record belongs as the time frame can overlap occupation. For a complete picture of this area see:
