Admission Included

Radcliffe Camera

(Pass by)

The circular dome and drum of the Radcliffe Camera provides one of Oxford's most iconic sights, and is a distinctive landmark in a city full of distinctive landmarks! The camera (the word means simply "room") was built 1737-1749 with £40,000 bequeathed by Dr John Radcliffe, the royal physician. Radcliffe was the most successful physician in England, and in his will he left money to purchase land, build a library, purchase books, and pay a full-time librarian. A site was purchased north of University Church (St Mary's), on a new square created when old houses were torn down.

Christ Church

(Pass by)

Christ Church is famous for its connection with two fictional figures: Alice in Wonderland, the creation of the 19th-century mathematics tutor Charles Lutwidge Dodgson (Lewis Carroll), and Harry Potter (the film version of Hogwarts was partly based on Christ Church Hall).

Brasenose College

(Pass by)

It established a College to be called 'The King's Hall and College of Brasenose' (in this sense Brasenose Hall still exists) for the study of sophistry, logic, philosophy and, above all, theology. The founders of Brasenose College were Sir Richard Sutton, a lawyer, and William Smyth, Bishop of Lincoln.

Bodleian Library

(Pass by)

The Bodleian Library is one of the oldest and biggest libraries in Britain. The library (which is actually a series of interconnected libraries dotted throughout Oxford that are collectively referred to as the Bodleian Libraries) has an impressive history – some of its buildings have been libraries since the Middle Ages.

Queen's College

(Pass by)

The Queen's College has a reputation as one of the friendliest and most inclusive colleges. It was founded in 1341 and is one of the oldest Oxford colleges, giving it a rich history and many quirky traditions. The current buildings date from the early 18th century and provide a beautiful backdrop to student life.
