I couldn't
find many pictures of Henry Holiday's Stained Glass windows in Trinity
College, Cambridge so I decided to create my own pages. The windows are
numbered 1 to 8 from the Ante Chapel to the Altar. I have tried to
identify the person depicted in each window and provide links with
information about that person. If you have any corrections, comments or
advice please contact me at john-saville@ntlworld.com. |

Cotes (with a
telescope) had an observatory built over the
Great Gate at Trinity, but it was demolished in 1797. Cotes died at the
early age of 33, and Newton said of him, "Had he lived, perhaps we would
have known something." |
