More Stones in the Library
Oxford, England ~ February 18, 2010
Divinity School, Bodleian Library
This building is famous for its architecture, particularly the stunning fan vaulting of its Gothic ceiling. I began this blog with a picture from another corner of this room. You can see the grating in more detail if you follow this link.

Mystery Circle on the Pavement
Warwick, England ~ February 17, 2010
This circle in the pavement is a mystery to me. It was at the top of the earthen mound that is the oldest part of Warwick Castle. The mound was built in 1068 "on the orders of William the Conqueror," according to a sign at the castle. The top of the mound was not large - maybe the size of a good-sized livingroom, but open to the air with low walls on most of the sides and no roof. It was like a garden terrace, and this construction was on the rain-drenched pathway between the entrance and one of the low walls. I'm trying to remember the size. I think it was a bit larger than a typical manhole cover. In fact, it may have been as much as two feet across.
If you like Warwick Castle, I have more Warwick on Tapirgal's Daily Image and on Animal Art Along the Way.

Chewing Gum
I'm not sure why this photo doesn't show it as intensely as I remembered, but I don't think I've seen as much chewing gum on the ground in one place as here outside of a disco in Oxford near the train station.

Bodleian Library
Under the circumstances, the text on the metal cover is perfect. Check out today's post on Tapirgal's Daily Image to see the building reflected here.
