UNIVERSITY
Oxford
University College was founded in 1249. In my mind, it will always be associated with William Turner's painting 'High Street, Oxford' currently hanging in the Ashmolean. Look across at those beautiful stone steps, raise your head up, and look squarely at the niche above. The portly Mary is standing in all her glory; if you look further along the building you can see her sister Anne.
