The rules of football were first made here. Today you're more likely to see cricket or frisbee.

Parker’s Piece is an open space used by locals to lounge around and play football and cricket on the grass; it is famous as the place where, in 1848, students agreed a set of simple guidelines for football which were to influence the development of the Football Association rules. Only 5 minutes away by foot.

A large park in the centre of Cambridge, often hosts events and small festivals in the summer. A great place to do some people watching.
