In 2012, Lisa Kuppler (Frankfurter Allgemeine Sonntagszeitung) paid tribute to the writer J.R.R. TOLKIEN (1892 to 1973), who invented a fictional world called Middle Earth inhabited by 'hobbits', with the words: "It is this complex creation of an entire world that makes 'The Lord of the Rings' the original text of the fantasy genre." Two decades earlier - on the occasion of his 100th birthday - a bench and two trees were dedicated to him here, in Oxford's university park. Tolkien's most popular work to date includes the volumes: "The Fellowship of the Ring" (Volume 1); "The Two Towers" (Volume 2); "The Return of the King" (Volume 3). Many people may not have read his books, but they know the film version of this great myth.

The new shoots on the base of its trunk are guarded from rabbits and deer by a chestnut palling fence. Hopefully this ancient oak will rise again in time.

Jarn's Mound and Wild Garden was constructed by British archaeologist Sir Arthur Evans (1851-1941) who is best known for his excavation and reconstruction of the Bronze Age palace of Knossos on Crete. He lived on Boars Hill from 1894 until his death and was passionate about protecting the area and maintaining its beauty for others to enjoy. He constructed an artificial mound which is 15 metres high to bring out the magnificent views over to the city of Oxford in one direction, and the Vale of the White Horse in the other.
