Not sure how we got onto the late lamented Cambridge Civic Restaurant (as
it was when I knew it) in this thread. It was indeed on that corner. I
only ever eat there once, when in Cambridge for my interview in 1967.

Evidently I have failed to remember that it was Civic, and so apparently
connected to a better class of governmental organisation than that then
in charge of the country. I'd eaten there, but not often, probably when
living in Eden Street.
