View from north Oxford

To the left are the Parks and Science Area. In the middle the two main roads into Oxford from the north, Banbury Road (left) and Woodstock Road (right) join to form the broad thoroughfare of St. Giles which leads into the main shopping street, Cornmarket, in central Oxford. Most of the older colleges can be seen in the distance to the left. Beyond are Christ Church Meadow and the River Thames (known locally as the Isis), where rowing takes place.
