Frosty leaves at Babraham Hall
The Babraham Research Campus is located six miles south-east of Cambridge in the picturesque estate of Babraham Hall. Our campus blends modern laboratory buildings with a parkland setting that provides calm and delightful views.

The site was purchased from the Adeane family after the Second World War and, in succeeding years, the Institute has sought to maintain and improve the appearance of the environment and buildings. Recent developments include a meadow garden and conservation measures throughout the estate. There are a number of mapped routes around the 182 acre estate for those interested in walking and nature.
