Notes:

“At a point where the High Street, now Trinity Street, branches off from Bridge Street stands the church of the Holy Sepulchre, one of the four round churches of England. (The others are: S. Sepulchre at Northampton, c. 1100 – 1127; Little Maplestead in Essex, c. 1300; The Temple Church in London, finished 1185. To these may be added the chapel in Ludlow Castle, c. 1120.)” (p. 42)

The Round Church in Cambridge probably dates from between 1120 and 1140.
