Sussex Street, Shopping and pedestrian street in central Cambridge, England
Sussex Street is a pedestrian shopping area running from Sidney Street to the intersection of King Street and Hobson Street, with various retail shops and walkways. The street is closed to traffic and connects to Hobson's Passage on its southern side.
The buildings were constructed between 1928 and 1939 as a mixed-use development in neo-Georgian style. This building period shaped the street's appearance and reflects Cambridge's growth during the interwar years.
The shops along this street reflect local shopping traditions, with stores focused on fashion, music, and beauty services. This mix of retailers shapes daily life in Cambridge and shows what kinds of stores matter to the community.
The street is closed to vehicles and provides easy access to Sidney Sussex College. The location makes it easy for visitors to explore the area on foot and reach nearby passages.
A covered bridge spans the street and connects both sides. Montagu House, a Grade II listed building, sits at the corner of Sidney Street and stands out for its architecture.
