Nineteenth-century English Town Houses

from Cornell University Library

• Hans-Bernd Abel said:

  Nos. 12-13 & 14-15 Parks Road, North Oxford, seen from north east. Built in 1868 and 1869, architect(s) unspecified, Semi-detached houses on the Keble Road Triangle, called "South/North Grove" (Nos. 12/13) and "East View" (Nos. 14/15). The two remaining of originally four Victorian buildings on this section of Parks Road. Though no informations are available about the architects, Nos. 12-13 can be attributed to Frederick Codd, whose designs at 2 Bevington Rd and 58 Woodstock Rd are identical in style and workmanship. Nos. 14-15 represent a semi type which is quite common in this area, similar buildings can be found near Museums Rd and on Blackhall Rd, and particularly on Winchester Road. No. 15 was later enlarged at the north side, with additional windows and a chimney, furthermore attaching an extension at the north west corner. Everything else looks today almost like on this photograph, just 150 years older. A blue plaque at No. 12 notes today that this was the home of Novelist Joyce Cary from 1920 until his death in 1957. In 1963, Oxford University's Department of Theoretical Physics, headed by Prof. Rudolf Peierls, moved into Nos. 12 to 14. At that time the Victorian houses were already surrounded by modern buildings of the developing Science Area. Today, both buildings are housing offices and laboratories of the Department of Materials. The houses - not occupied yet - look brand new on this photograph, as if the last brick was set moments ago, the site not completely being cleaned up, thus the date of the photograph should also be around 1869.

Merrill Denison - Bon Echo Dedication, 1965

from Cloyne and District Historical Society

• Jack K.....ski said:

  We should be so grateful to Merrill Denison for donating the land to the People of Ontario! Now, instead of the park, there would probably be an expensive resort! I think that the park should rename some of its campgrounds and name them after Merrill Denison.
