The Bodleian Library

We managed to book a tour of the Divinity School and Duke Humphrey's Library (part of the Bodleian Library) at 4.00 pm

The Tower of Five Orders

This tower is the eastern entrance to the Bodleian Library. It is so named because the columns on each level represent the five orders of classical architecture: (from bottom) Tuscan, Doric, Ionic, Corinthian and Composite.
