Grapevine

Archway, Christ's College, Cambridge.

This archway leads through from the First Court to the Second Court. On either side of the entrance, there are carved and painted heraldic beasts, associatedwith the foundress, Lady Margaret Beaufort and her son Henry VII. The two yales (mythical beasts akin to antelopes) that you can see on this side, First Court, were the supporters of the Beaufort coat of arms.
