Lyceum legacy to the women of Cambridge
With the best will in the world, there can come a time when a good thing must come to an end, but even when the people who originally set out are long gone, ways can be found to continue their mission.

Decades of fun, companionship and learning were enjoyed by hundreds of members at the House, with the ladies of the Lyceum being a formidable force for public good in Cambridge town and district.
