Oxfordshire Hardback
by Jennifer Sherwood, Nikolaus Pevsner
Part of the Pevsner Architectural Guides: Buildings of England series
Hardback
Description
Oxford's unique collection of university and college buildings both old and new form a major part of this book.
The city itself with its medieval walls and castle and ancient churches is also fully described.
Among the county's distinguished houses are Vanbrugh's Blenheim and Kent's Rousham Park, each in magnificently landscaped grounds, while village churches range from notable Norman examples such as Iffley to G.E.
Street's inventive Victorian creations such as St Simon & St Jude at Shipton-under-Wychwood.
Other attractive towns in this still strongly rural county vary from stone-built Chipping Norton in the Cotswolds to brick-built Henley on the Thames.
