Cambridge Timeline: River Cam Colleges (2D)

This 2D companion drives the same founding-year dataset as the 3D version through a plain top-down canvas map: the River Cam winds down the stage, each of the 22 colleges sits on its historical bank, and scrubbing the year slider (or pressing Play era) grows each dot into a labelled marker the moment its founding year is reached — click any dot, or use the dropdown, to read its short history.
