Very nice chapel, quite close to the ring road. Check to see when it's open or a event happening here for a better experience.

Went with a friend to see a theatre event here (Hamlet). Beautiful, atmospheric space that’s clearly well maintained inside and out. Show was good too! :) The space only enhanced it

I haven't been inside yet but an amazingly old building that's lovely to go and see even from the outside.

Lovely spot. Not open sufficiently often. Will visit again soon.

Exquisite, ancient Romanesque-style chapel well outside the city's main tourist areas. You'll most likely have it to yourself if you make the fairly small effort (it's on a bus route and close to some of the cheaper hotels on the edge of the city centre) to get there.

Free to visit. It's only open on a small number of days each year (look at the website in advance), although you can get a very good idea of it from the outside (accessible at any time) and it's mostly rather plain inside (albeit with some interesting architectural details). Originally 12th century though it has been much repaired, rebuilt and altered over the centuries. It sits on a pleasant plot of green land just alongside Newmarket Road: you can easily park at one of the superstores nearby and walk there.It's very small, so if you want to extend the visit then you can walk down to the river and on to Fen Ditton or further.
