The Gate of Honour, which graduates pass through. More recently, on Flickr: [http://www.flickr.com/photos/84298790@N00/2812358082/] Looks like they've cleaned up the ivy from the top of the gate.

This statue was (is?) at Lacock Abbey, which was Fox Talbot's house and is now a museum about him, run by the UK National Trust.

Diogenes, ancient Greek philosopher who went out with a lantern in daylight to look for an honest man.

I think it's great that Fox Talbot was so ahead of his time - "This photo was taken some time in 1843 using a Canon EOS 5D Mark II.". :-) On a more serious note, is that a ships mast and rigging through the window ?

Chris Samuel 16 May 1843 = "some time in 1843"? :) Looks like masts and rigging to me too.

Yes, Rouen has always been a port town, although located inside France.
