History of 113 Chesterton Road

1914 – 1919

Eric Neville, mathematician.

For several weeks in 1914 the Indian mathematician Srinivasa Ramanujan lived at the house before moving to Whewell’s Court. Ramanujan is considered to have been one of the greatest mathematicians of all time. The film, “The Man Who Knew Infinity” is based on his life.
