Kim Yes, it's probably not practical to come to Cowley for a day from Cambridge. The coach service X5 from Stagecoach takes three hours and fifteen minutes from Cambridge to Oxford, and by the time you've factored in getting out across Oxford and them a bus out to Cowley, you are effectively talking about four hours each way from Cambridge to the Oxfordshire History Centre.
