How the clocks go back... Cambridge style! The Corpus Chronophage Clock – designed by inventor, horologist and @CorpusCambridge alumnus Dr John C Taylor OBE – is probably one of the most photographed clocks in the world. Located outside Corpus Christi Library, this striking sculptural Clock has no hands or numerals, but displays the time through blue LEDs in three concentric rings displaying the hours, minutes and seconds. #ClocksGoBack #CambridgeUniversity #Cambridge

Your bike could be stolen in seconds — but getting it back starts with being registered. Yesterday, we teamed up with Cambridgeshire Constabulary to help our College community protect their bikes through BikeRegister. Thanks to @CambsCops and Head Porter Ben Phillips.

In the early Middle Ages, the Anglo-Saxons developed a “Little England” in Rome 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁥󠁮󠁧󠁿🇮🇹 New research from @Department_ASNC suggests that early English expats avoided ‘travel money’ hassle thanks to special treatment from the Pope. The discovery of English coins changing hands in Rome in this period challenges a long-held assumption that the papacy forbade the use of foreign currency in the city. Find out more 👉 bit.ly/46VEvZ6
