A nice spot to watch river activity from

There are records which suggest the presence of a bridge on the site in the 14th century but this structure was short-lived and crossing was made by ferry from at least 1379 until a timber bridge was built in 1767. The present stone structure dates from 1827. A toll was payable on both the ferry and the subsequent bridges until 1874 when the County Councils of Berkshire and Oxfordshire joined to buy the bridge from its private trustees and scrapped the charges.

As a memorial to the many dead, such monuments - usually called "war memorials" in English - are still very important today. "Now, Lord, you let your servant depart in peace, as you have said..." says the so-called "Hymn of Simeon" (Luke 2, verse 29). However, the people who are remembered here did not depart in peace, but became victims of war and tyranny. Therefore, the term "fallen memorial" is now sometimes used in German instead of the previously common "war memorial".

Opened in 1965, the Isis Bridge is the modern road bridge over the Thames south of Oxford.

The iconic bridge that spans Hertford College's campuses. A nice sport to ride if somewhat hidden.

This is an iconic part of Oxford, alongside the library is the Hertford Bridge.

Here the route is much better and whilst there isn't much in the way of scenery the surface is solid and the roads relatively quite with offroad routes nearby into oxford at Brasenose Wood.

Built between 1737 and 1749, the Radcliffe Camera is named after John Radcliffe, a doctor who left a significant sum to the university. The striking, round Palladian-style building was designed by architect James Gibbs. Originally designed as a science library, the Radcliffe Camera now serves as the reading room of the Bodleian Library, one of the oldest libraries in Europe. The building is notable for its impressive dome and large rotunda surrounded by a colonnade of Corinthian columns. The Radcliffe Camera is not only a major architectural masterpiece, but also an important part of academic life in Oxford. It is centrally located in Oxford's Old Town and is surrounded by many of the university's other historic buildings, making it a popular photo opportunity and tourist attraction.
