FOOTNOTES[1]E.g.Brancepeth and Sedgefield, Co. Durham.[2]Merton College was founded in 1264, but its corporate existence does not actually begin till 1274. Similarly, Peterhouse, founded in 1281, did not possess buildings or enjoy a common life till 1284, the year of Hugh de Balsham’s death.[3]Much of the glass was re-touched in the last century, and some was added about 1845.[4]Waynflete had, no doubt, something to say about the building of the College. He was a great architect, as his work at Tattershall Castle shows.[5]The tower may be compared with the palace which Alcock built at Ely. Both are admirable examples of their style.[6]With the exception of the range of buildings (1822) forming an extension of the east side of Cloister Court.[7]There is a somewhat untrustworthy tradition that Ben Jonson was a member of the college for a very short time. His means, although aided by the generosity of a friend, did not allow him to stay at Cambridge. Barry Cornwall supposed him to have been here or at Trinity.[8]Professor W. E. Collins, of King’s College, London, the historian, should, however, be mentioned as an undergraduate and late tutor of Selwyn.[9]These Schools were designed by the late Mr J. L. Pearson, R.A.
