Oxford - Streets & Covered Market

2008.06.09
June 8th set shows the Sheldonian Theatre and Blackwell's Bookshop.
June 7th Balliol College.

Some well known buildings in and around the centre of Oxford



Think this is Trinity College


Note the gargoyles - they are on many local buildings; usually unique.


The Varsity Shop


Covered market entrance behind the red telephone box. Specialist fish, sausages, t shirts, Italian pasta, arty clothes and a lot of other things.





Sausage shop - variety board below.













Bikes everywhere, of course. Oxford has a well established park and ride scheme running from outside the City.

Plenty of eating places in Oxford for students and tourists.

A few general shots of Oxford plus some of the old covered market, which is being threatened by developers.

jagungal These really give a sense of the life around the town and complement the first two Oxford posts very nicely.
