I'm back in Cambridge from Sep 11 and can take a look at the facilities

I've never been inside the Law Faculty, but it's certainly no more than
5-10mins from Clare.
Clare and John's are both good centre-of-town locations, whereas
Homerton and New Hall are hyperspace by Cambridge standards (i.e. more
than 15mins staggering distance from The Eagle). I think we just need
to see the proposed rooms and decide...
