House in multiple occupancy, Bateman Street, Cambridge
The nine doorbells are an obvious sign that this terraced house has been split up for multiple occupancy; it is one of many similar on the street, this one chosen at random for illustrative purposes.
This is Fitzwilliam Street, in Little St Mary's parish. Probably its most famous resident was Charles Darwin, who lodged here while studying at Christ's College (1828-1831). Darwin's mentor, the Professor of Botany John Stevens Henslow, was a curate at Little St Mary's.
