A (New) gargoyle on St. Mary's Church tower

Gargoyles are a feature of Oxford architecture and can help with water drainage from roofs using the mouth as a spout. Many are reputed to resemble Oxford dons of their day.

The High Street from Carfax Tower

The High Street is the main easterly street out of Oxford. University College on the right is by tradition the oldest Oxford college founded in 1249, but the site of the college moved during its history and the current buildings date from the 17th century. Carfax, from where this photograph is taken, is considered the centre of Oxford being at the crossroads of four important thoroughfares.
