About this audio guide
This guide to The Orchard Tea Garden in Grantchester, just outside Cambridge, starts with a late Victorian landlady, Mrs Stevenson, and the students who lodged and ate at her house next door. It follows a request about where to take tea, the wooden pavilion that grew out of it, and the young poet Rupert Brooke, who arrived in nineteen oh nine with famous friends in tow. Best heard in a deckchair under the trees, with the village church across the lane.
