O ye Spires of Oxford! domes and towers!

The Sheldonian Theatre, was built from 1664 to 1668 after a design by Christopher Wren for the University of Oxford. The building is named after Gilbert Sheldon, chancellor of the university at the time and the project's main financial backer. It is used for music concerts, lectures and university ceremonies.

The Radcliffe Camera viewed through a window of the University Church of St Mary the Virgin.
