I am writing an article for the local paper and was wondering how many
eminent astronomers have lived in Cambridge or been to Cambridge Uni.

The few I have so far a

John Couch Adams,
Jocelyn Bell Burnell
Isaac Newton
Martin Rees

Mr A R Green BSc(Hons), FRAS

The RAS might be a good place to ask. Or whatever is left of Cambridge
observatories.

Ryle, Hoyle, Hewish, Graham-Smith, Sciama if his field counts.

But you need to define "been to" better. Do you include undergraduates,
postgraduates, teaching staff, research staff, eminent visitors on
sabbatical, recipients of honorary degrees, those just visiting, ... ?
I've seen John Glenn there.
