This space, originally owned by Merton College, was purchased by the University in the 1850s and first laid out as a Park for sports and recreational purposes in 1864. The park is open to the public almost every day of the year until dusk (the only exception being Christmas Eve) and boasts a choice of walks, a large collection of trees and plants and space for informal games and picnics. For those that enjoy sport there’s the opportunity, depending on the season, to catch a game of cricket, lacrosse, tennis, football or rugby. Harry Potter fans may even encounter a game of Quidditch in play. The River Cherwell borders the north east side of the park with a small plot of land (Mesopotamia) sitting between the upper and lower levels of the river. Norham Gardens is to the north, Parks Road to the west and with the Science Area on South Parks Road to the south.

"Water is Wide"

I don't know the lady in my photo but I was pleased she was wearing red :-) Also, she was holding a dog lead but I think her dog must be hiding behind the tree :-) This is the Eleven-Acre Lake in Stowe Landscape Gardens. It is not massively wide but for 'Sight and Sound' I think it is wide enough to allow me to use "The Water is Wide" by Karla Bonoff :-) Added to Sight and Sound : Pictures & Music ♫ ♪ ♫ ♪ Listen here ~ Water is Wide ~ Karla Bonoff ♫ ♪ ♫ ♪ Or, listen here ~ Water is Wide ~ Karla Bonoff Please view on black :-)

Explored! Thank you very much :-) SATURDAY SELF-CHALLENGE 17 NOVEMBER 2018 TAKE A PHOTO OF AN ODD NUMBER OF ANY SUBJECT (3,5,7 ETC.) AND ARRANGE IT SO THAT IT'S PLEASING TO THE EYE. I told them to stay together and keep swimming in the same direction.......please :-) This shot was taken at Willen Lake. The lake is quite large and for 'Sight and Sound' I have chosen "The Water is Wide" by David Sanborn & Linda Ronstadt.
