Cambridge Tram Depot
In 35 years of riding down East Street in cars, I missed this little gem, just a half block back; near Adam and Eve street, would you believe. Although this pub claims to be The Old Tram Depot, the building was actually the stables for the tram horses. The tramway had the unusual track gauge of 4 feet, and was only open from 1880 to 1914 (no, I wasn't there!). The only surviving tram is displayed in the Ipswich Museum of Transport, but there is a curved piece of track set in cobbles at a Cambridge museum.
