But the meadow's wide open views have now been damaged by Oxford City Council allowing Oxford University to build a row of massive blocks around the south-eastern perimeter. This has been likened to building a skyscraper next to Stonehenge, and campaigners are fighting to have the top storeys removed.

A hedge beyond that forms a shield,
Happier times from yesterday
Sadly lost and gone away.
Isisbridge club has replied to StudleyBut yonder eyesore blocks now loom,
Since Oxford Uni spoiled the day
By building Roger Dudman Way.
