		The Bridge of Sighs at John’s College in Cambridge is a stunning example of East Anglia’s historical heritage.
		The Bridge of Sighs was inspired by the famous Ponte dei Sospiri in Venice which passes over the Rio di Palazzo and connects the old prisons to the interrogation rooms in the Doge’s Palace.
		The bridge was named by Lord Byron in the 19th century after the suggestion that prisoners would sigh at their final view of beautiful Venice out of the window as they crossed the bridge before being taken down to their cells.

	Bridge of Sighs (Oxford) - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		Hertford Bridge in New College Lane, Oxford, England is often referred to as the "Bridge of Sighs" because of its supposed similarity to the famous bridge of the same name in Venice.

	The Tattoo - Making my own fun at Cambridge
		Oxford and Cambridge universities are unique in British further education in that they can often provide two-to-one or even one-on-one supplementary teaching in college on top of lecture studies.
