Worcester College Pond

Today in Oxford there was another kind of "Open Doors", but this time it was just for the colleges of the University, and they where opening there doors for prospective students for next year. Although I am not intending on going to Oxford University I find that most if the colleges are more than happy to let you wonder around on these days, so today I went to Worcester College. It is a little bit away from most of the other colleges which are around the High Street. I did not know that tucked away behind there quad in the most lovely grounds, is this very large pond, I heard a reference about it as a pond, but it is more like a lake. See the autumn colours on the trees?

I see both summer and autumn colors here. It's the same deal in Haninge. It feels like Autumn is early this year.

A pretty vignette of autominal colourings - and I'm sure it was an unexpected delight to the eyes.

Lovely image. The row of medieval cottages on the south side of the quad were left when building funds ran out in the 18th century. I believe Emma Watson will be attending Worcester this year.
