The picture above is what all the buildings used to look like everywhere in Oxford and London but they changed to limestone like the picture below in Oxford. And buildings in London are not allowed to be thatch ever since the city burned in the London Fire!
One of the courtyards we were able to peek in, so gorgeous!
These faces were everywhere! I thought the were funny.
This is actually the where three Oxford bishops were burned to the stack by Queen Mary (Bloody Mary) because they were not practicing Catholicism. There is a door that is on display in a building near by that evidently has the burn marks and still smells like the the fire. Wasn't able to check it out because it was freshers day.
