Oxford, England, train and bike, no cars please..... The Grapes, a landmark pub is shut

@Persephonee Also found Lamb & Flag closed, St Giles.

@devonman Noooooooooooo!

@SomeMichGuy The building is split into two units for business use .
It does look as though cleaning has taken place at different times .

@devonman I am assuming cleaning--rather than restoring, resurfacing, repainting--due to the streaks from water.

However, I'm guessing that the end in question was redone at some point and that explains the new windows and more sparse half-timbers; it seems likely that there were other cantilevered window seats and a matching density of half-timbers prior to whatever renovation occurred. ??

@SomeMichGuy Yes, and carefully maintained.

@Quimliqer In Britain, at the site of one of the oldest, most revered seats of higher learning? You *must* be joking! ;-)
