More information on Worcester College
Worcester's location is nowadays regarded as central, but it was once considered so isolated that the college was referred to as Botany Bay. The benefit of being on the edge of central Oxford is that Worcester has extensive grounds. The grounds extend to 26 acres and include a beautiful lake - unsurprisingly, they are one of the main attractions for visitors to the college. Worcester is also of considerable architectural interest, with a pleasing mix of neo-classical and medieval buildings. The latter are a reminder of the college's beginnings as a Benedictine college in the 13th century. Visits by appointment only: no groups.
