The Clarendon Building, Oxford

Extract from the following website -

“The Clarendon Building was built in 1711–13 to the designs of Nicholas Hawksmoor. It is a Grade I listed building. It was built to house the Oxford University Press, which had previously been occupying a large room over the ceiling of the Sheldonian Theatre. It owes it name to the fact that it was partly paid for by the profits from the 'History of the Great Rebellion' by Lord Clarendon, whose son presented the University with its copyright. It was known as “The Printing House” until the University Press moved to Walton Street in 1832.”

The Clarendon Building is now part of the Bodleian Library.

I guess I could have titled this shot 'The Clarendon Building Plus Tourists" :-)
