The Queens' Boar and the Mathematical Bridge

Painted by Eva Fang

Queens' (not Queen's!) College was founded in 1448 by Margaret of Anjou, Queen of England and nominal Queen of France from 1445 to 1453. It was re-founded in 1465 by her successor as Queen, Elizabeth Woodville in the period after the battle of Towton of 1461 and the victory of Edward IV. Then, in 1477 and 1484, Richard III made large endowments to the college, and his wife Anne Neville became the third Queen and Patron of Queens' College. 

The Boar of Queens College is not part of the coat of arms, but is known as the Boar badge, and has been used perhaps incorrectly since at least the 1540s. The White Boar was the personal emblem of King Richard III.

The Mathematical bridge is a grade II listed building that connects the two parts of Queens College that are on either side of the River Cam. Despite persistent local legend, it was not designed and built by Sir Isaac Newton, (who died in 1927) but by William Etheridge a known civil engineer, and built by James Essex, a Cambridge builder, it was completed in 1749. Another story is that it was constructed initially without nails or bolts, but when it was taken apart to discover how this was so, no one could put it back together. This is false, but a commonly told legend!
