Looking at that web page:

  Did you try the Corn Exchange? (476 square metres)

  http://www.conferences-uk.org.uk/Cambridge.asp?venue=Cambridge%20Corn%20Exchange

  Address:
  Cambridge Corn Exchange, Wheeler Street, Cambridge
  CB2 3QB

  Direct tel: 08712312805

  Description: Originally designed in 1873 by one of the country's
  foremost architects of his day, Richard Rowe, the Corn Exchange was, in more
  recent times, redesigned as a concert hall and conference facility. The main
  auditorium is a versatile space, which offers the flexibility for conferences
  of all sizes - from fully seated (across three levels) to walk-round
  exhibitions.

  Or the Guildhall? (330 square metres)

  Description: The historic Guildhall is situated next to the Cambridge Corn
  Exchange and offers two large conference spaces. These can be used
  independently or in conjunction with the Corn Exchange spaces. All the
  facilities are on first floor level with access by stairs or lifts. THE LARGE
  HALL The Large Hall is the main space within the Guildhall. This impressive
  conference venue is often used for University degree ceremonies. It offers 3
  30sq metres of floor space which can be set up in a variety of configurations
  depending on the nature of your conference. The space can easily accommodate 40
  exhibition stands measuring 1.83 x 0.92 meters.
