Encyclopedia : M : MA : MAD : Madingley


Madingley is a village on the western outskirts of Cambridge in the United Kingdom. The largest house in the village is Madingley Hall, which was begun in 1546 and is surrounded by parkland. The Hall has been owned by the University of Cambridge since 1948.

The village's former public house, The Three Horseshoes, is now a restaurant. It is supposed to be one of the best restaurants in the area.

A cemetery and chapel dedicated to American servicemen opened in 1956, on the southern edge of the village beside the road from Cambridge to St Neots.

Madingley has its lake where many animals live.
