I lived in Oxford for several years. I used to walk/cycle past that building from time to time but never saw inside. Thanks for the post. Edit - You can almost see where I used to live out your window.

Glad to be of service. It was a bit too removed from college and class for my taste, but it was a very nice place to live on the whole. Quality of life much improved after getting a bicycle!

The trains idling overnight were sometimes a bit annoying.

Isn’t that the truth. It was fine when I kept the windows closed during winter, but in the warmer months the room was sweltering thus the window was open and the trains disruptive. Seeing the Belmond Pullman rattle by was a treat though!
