St Radegund is a pub in King Street, Cambridge, England. It is named after St Radegund, a Frankish saint associated with the nearby Jesus College. It is the home to the Cantabrigensis Hash House Harriers, a successful rowing club, famous (cricket team ) 〔Cambridge University Library online file reference ()〕 and is the start/finish venue on the legendary King Street Run. All of these activities and more were encouraged (and in the case of the cricket team, started) by Terry Kavanagh (1937-2012), who was landlord between 1992 and 2009. Since 1992〔http://cricket.radegund.co.uk/results/1992.htm〕 the St Radegund has played an annual cricket match against The Champion of the Thames, for the King Street Trophy. In 2008, the saga of the 2003 St Radegund cricket tour to Croatia,〔''Slobodna Dalmacija'' 23 September 2003, p.51〕 ''The Ascent of Mount Hum'', was published, to critical acclaim.〔''The Wisden Cricketer'' February 2009, p.84〕 St Radegund is the smallest pub in Cambridge. Friday night is Vera Lynn Appreciation Society night when large gin and tonics are served to the sounds of the wartime Forces Sweetheart. In 2007, it was pointed out that the pub sign depicted the arms of the Austrian municipality, Sankt Radegund bei Graz rather than the Saint herself. A local artist was commissioned to correct the mistake and the story attracted media comment. In 2010, the new landlord, James Hoskins, reverted to a design incorporating the former (incorrect) arms. In early 2015 the premises underwent a programme of refurbishment and redecoration. ==References== 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「St Radegund, Cambridge」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
