	Sidgwick Site: Site Assessment: Conclusions
		One of the least satisfactory aspects of the current form of the site is the lack of engagement with the adjacent streets of Sidgwick Avenue and West Road.
		Issues of entrances and edges to the site need to be addressed both to respond to the different natures of each street and to create legible and safe points of entry to the Sidgwick Site.
		In the context of the early 1950's, the Sidgwick Site represented a considerable advance in University campus planning compared with the rigidity and monotony of the pre-war development of the Downing Site, for example.

	Building Fact Sheet: Sidgwick Site Master Plan
		The Sidgwick Site is the University's main campus for the Arts and Humanities faculties and is well situated within walking distance of the University Library, other University facilities and the Colleges.
		The site later acquired buildings by some of most influential British architects of the 20th century such as the Seeley Library by Stirling and Gowan and the Law Faculty Library by Foster and Partners.
		The intention of the Master Plan was to define the full extent of development so as to ensure that new schemes related to the whole site and afforded greater cohesion and form to the site generally, showing clear relationships with surrounding areas and, in particular, the University Library.

	Henry Sidgwick
		Henry Sidgwick was born in the year after Queen Victoria took the throne, and died six months before she died.
		Sidgwick was particularly influenced by the thought of John Stuart Mill.
		Sidgwick also proposed that the appropriate measure of social welfare was average utility multiplied by the size of the population.

	Henry Sidgwick
		Sidgwick came to think that intuitions had to be invoked as the rational ground of fundamental principles.
		Moreover, he went beyond Mill in arguing that many of the common-sense moral rules that the intuitionists sought to refine and defend - for example, that promises ought to be kept - could be defended as by and large conducing to the greatest happiness, at least for the ordinary purposes of ordinary people.
		Sidgwick was very much a part of the intimate circle of John Addington Symonds (1840-93), the controversial poet, literary critic, and cultural historian, who became a pioneer of gay studies.

	Master Plan for the Sidgwick Site: Design Concepts
		Following the pre-war development of the Downing Site in a regular grid layout of essentially similar blocks, the University authorities took the specific decision that the post-war Arts and Humanities site should be non-collegiate, but a more open, accessible and informal place.
		The new courts of the Sidgwick Site are seen in relation to their historic precedents of College courtyards across the backs.
		On a site of this density of development, the quality of spaces between buildings are critical to the environment.

	Legal precedent - architectural design of Cambridge University's Law Faculty building - includes plans and ... (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-17)
		Even today, after the healing interval of 20 years, it is hard to disagree with their conclusion that the huge influx of post-war talent has led' not to an enriched environment but to conclusion and overstatement'.
		Sidgwick Avenue was to become Cambridge's intellectual theme park, with the individual arts faculties mimicking in their layout the format of the colleges - and by implication vying with them as a focus of learning.
		At Sidgwick Avenue, James Stirling's angry red History Faculty was clearly not on speaking terms with anybody; and so it has fallen to Norman Foster on the adjoining site to effect a few introductions.

		Services and shops: The site has a nice, cheap, airy and accessible buttery on the raised section, selling the usual sandwiches, light lunches, snacks and drinks.
		There is plenty of space, and nearly the whole site is pedestrian only.
		Signs and wayfinding: Very few signs, and the site is large, so if you aren't familiar with the layout ask for detailed directions in advance.

	Sidgwick: Biographical Notes
		Sidgwick's philosophy was introduced into Japan in Meiji Era (around 1890), and was studied by Rikizo Nakajima, Iwai Onishi, Shinichiro Nishi, Ryosen Tsunashima, among others.
		In the meantime, Part Three of Sidgwick's The Principles of Political Economy was translated into Japanese in 1897iby Kinji Tajima and Kinshiro Tsuchiko, Waseda University Press), and also the 5th edition of The Methods of Ethics in 1898iby Tomoharu Yamabe and Shuho Ota, under the supervision of Rikizo Nakajima, Dainippon-Tosho).
		However, in view of the importance of Sidgwick, who tried a systematic and analytic approach to ethics and contributed greatly to its development, we should expect far more studies on him; this writer considers him to be at least as much worthwhile as Hare, Brandt, Rawls, and any other moral philosophers.

	BBC - h2g2 - Newnham College, Cambridge
		The philosophy lecturer Henry Sidgwick rented a house in the city centre for five young women, and the College later moved to its present site on Sidgwick Avenue.
		She was succeeded by Eleanor Sidgwick (née Balfour, Henry's wife), and the College coat of arms includes references to the family arms of the Balfour, Clough and Sidgwick families, as well as that of Marion Kennedy, who was in charge of out-students in the early days.
		Women were not admitted to full membership of the university until 1948, and it was not until the 1970s that the men's colleges began to admit women undergraduates.

		He was a leader in finding and funding temporary, then permanent buildings; in promoting Univerity reforms, including the gradual and grudging acceptance of women; and in teaching women students when they arrived (he worried about their ‘unfortunate personal appearance’— too good-looking to be inconspicuous!).
		He married Eleanor Balfour, who as Mrs Sidgwick became the second Principal.He lived and died at Newnham, and is commemorated in the names of Sidgwick Pond, Sidgwick Hall, Sidgwick Avenue and Sidgwick Site.
		Sidgwick’s conversation was full of fun, mischief and joking word-play, known to his contemporaries as ‘Sidgwickedness’; yet he thought it right to suppress wit and sparkle in writing philosophy.

	Reporter 24/1/01: Report of Discussion
		Restraint on the part of past developers of the site has meant that reasonable gaps have generally been left between buildings - normally enough to sustain a tree or a patch of grass, and to avoid depriving adjacent offices or libraries of sunlight.
		The over-ambitious accommodation targets for this particular site mean that much of the existing greenery on the Sidgwick Site would inevitably be destroyed.
		The Committee welcomes a coherent approach to planning and development of the Sidgwick Site and understands that we are only at the beginning of a process of design and building which will take many years.

	Case History - Piled Retaining Walls
		The redevelopment of the University of Cambridge Sidgwick site involved the construction of two multi-storey structures for the faculty of English and the Institute of Criminology.
		The surrounding buildings continued to be used for teaching students and building works were very congested and constrained by existing structures.
		There were further complications on the Institute of Criminology site, where a buried channel within the Gault clay infilled with mixed sands and clays was identified beneath part of the proposed structure.

	Faculty of Divinity: How to apply for a postgraduate degree in the Faculty of Divinity
		The new building is situated at the western edge of the Sidgwick Site, bordering the gardens of Selwyn College, and therefore lies between the urban quality of the academic buildings of the Site and the suburban quality of the mature College gardens.
		In addition, Selwyn College had a restrictive covenant on development of the site that stated that "no building of any kind of a greater height than 15 feet shall at any time hereafter be erected within 20 feet of the northern and eastern boundary".
		The building rises up in a series of terraces from south to north, so that from Selwyn College and its gardens the various buildings on the Sidgwick site are seen set against each other beyond the trees.
