PHOTOS - some Oxford Architecture



Middle: The Old Bodleian Library up close [not the one with the plaque].
Bottom: The Sheldonian Theatre up close, and a truck. Why would he get in the way of my picture?


Bottom: The Tower of St Michael of the North Gate, nearly 1000 years old. This is Oxford's oldest building and was built by William the Conquerer as part of his network of town defences across the country [I may or may not have got that piece directly from a brochure, who's to say?]

Tim, I am so enjoying your yarns...have been missing them of late. I must confess to not knowing what a "crenel" is!! I was very impressed at the tidiness of your room!! Would your Scout like to stay with us in Australia for a while? I could get used to that!!
Love, Mum.xx
