On the top floor is the magnificent octagonal observing room... From this gallery the Observer had access to the roof where meteorological observations were carried out. Large windows lead from the observing room onto the balcony, making it possible to wheel observing instruments outdoors.

The Radcliffe Infirmary closed in 2007, with the site purchased by Oxford University, and most of the former hospital buildings were demolished in 2008, save for the listed buildings fronting Woodstock Road. The site lies directly alongside the Observatory and is now being filled with unattractive modern blocks, the latest insult being the Blavatnik Monstrosity, a six-storey glass lump next to the old St Paul's Church (Freud) on Walton Street.
