City of Dreaming Spires

A glimpse of Magdalen College

My only other visit to Oxford was for a work-related training course which took place in a former large Victorian residence away from the centre so I saw nothing of the city! Last week I had an opportunity of making a whistle stop visit on a journey “dahn Sarf” so with it being a fine afternoon, I headed off into the town.  I managed to find several caches and enjoyed tempting glimpses into several of the college grounds despite having limited time.  I even witnessed the filming of Vera Brittain’s “Testament of Youth” around Brasenose.  Definitely a place to revisit
