12-19 St Andrew's Street

12, 13, 14, 15, 16, 17, Victoria House, St Andrew’s Street

History of 12-17 St Andrew's Street

The Grand Arcaded archaeological excavation identified several historic plots along this frontage:

No. 12 (Plot VIII)

No. 13 (Plot IX)

Nos. 14/15 (Plot IX)

Nos. 16/17 (Plot X)

Nos. 18/19 (Plot XI)

No. 20 (Plot XI)

Commentary in the report (2019) states that in the early eighteenth century the frontage of Plot X was subdivided into five separate messuages, which subsequently underwent a series of development. In the northern part a school may have been built. In the southern part developments were carried out probably at the hands of Francis Tunwell, the Christ’s College cook and later merchant who leased Plot X in 1769. Tunwell was mayor of Cambridge in 1768, 1777 and 1782 and then declared bankrupt by 1784. Tunwell also leased Plot IX.

At some point in the C18th the southern messuage of Plot X stopped being the the Chequer Inn.

There are plans of Plot IX (nos 13 – 15) held by Jesus College dated 1792.


1840 Robert Sayle opens his shop at 12 St Andrew’s Street. Victoria House was leased from Emmanuel College. For detailed history of the plot and the business see Grand Arcade report (2019) p.309.
