THE CLARENDON BUILDING, BROAD STREET

It is the Roman Doric portico of the “Building” we see rising in the centre of the picture, surmounted by a huge leaden figure, forming one of the acroteria of the pediment.

This noble piece of architecture was erected from the proceeds of the sale of copies of Lord Clarendon’s History of the Rebellion, completed in 1713.

Looking west, on the right are some old houses, beyond which lie Trinity and Balliol Colleges. [Pg 7]
