Happy Fence Friday, All

The Radcliffe Camera was designed by James Gibbs and built 1737–1749 to house the Radcliffe Science Library. The Radcliffe Camera is not open to the public. The library's construction and maintenance was funded from the estate of John Radcliffe, a physician who left £40,000 upon his death in 1714. Construction only began in 1737, although the intervening period saw a complicated purchase of the site. The exterior was complete in 1747 and the interior finished by 1748. The library officially opened on 13 April 1749. Today the Radcliffe Camera is used as the main Reading Room for the Bodleian Library.

From Latin 'Camera' means 'Room'. Therefore, for 'Sight and Sound' my slightly obscure link is to "In My Room" by Linda Ronstadt.

Impressionnante architecture avec sa pelouse typique de ton beau pays qui relève les couleurs de la pierre et de la toiture. Merci Roger pour le partage ainsi que pour cette chanson si jolie mise dans ce groupe qui a résisté au balayage de Bernard!
