A great compendium to take on your Oxford tour. I became interested in this while watching Inspector Lewis on PBS.

A great guide, if just a tad dated
This is the only really comprehensive and detailed guide to the buildings of Oxford, that I am aware of. Though a little dated eg the Ashmolean upgrade is only covered as plans, overall given we're looking at approx. 1,000 years of history what's 10 years?I would thoroughly recommend this book to anyone who wants to know more about the buildings and not just a few superficial stories.

A Good Companion.
An excellent and easy to use comprehensive guide to the architecture of the splendid city of Oxford and its environs. Written in chronological order with some excellent half and full page photographs. Four very useful 'architectural walks' included at the end of the book. Highly recommended.
