1941

On the night of 16th January 1941 250 incendiary bombs were dropped in a close pattern centred on Hyde Park Corner. Some of the bombs slithered down the southern roof of the Catholic church but did not cause a fire. The main damage happened to the hall of the Perse School opposite and Flinders’ electrical store at 91 [?] Regent Street next to the Prince Regent. (‘Catholics in Cambridge’ ed. Rogers p.185)


1949

The Prince Regent, Regent Street — beginnings of the county cricket association, 1 October 1949
On a cold evening in 1889, the secretaries of a dozen local cricket clubs and a few enthusiasts met at Dan Hayward’s “The Prince Regent” in Regent St, Cambridge. Thus was sown the seed that was to grow into the stature of the Cambridgeshire Cricket Association. Last night, 60 years later, a gathering numbering more than 170 celebrated at a dinner at the Dorothy Café. Among them was England’s and Cambridge’s Jack Hobbs, still ranked by many as the world’s finest batsman.
