  • Three Oxford Architects'
    Three Oxford Architects' By ANDREW AlNT HE local professional architect is a new figure in the social and commercial life of English pro\'incial towns in the early 19th century. I n Oxford this is especiallyT noticeable. From the time of Wren onwards, the largest and most prestigious of university commissions tended to fall into the hands of London architects or educated Oxford dilettanti, and the town and surrounding countryside provided no comparable alternatives. Therefore local men like the Birds and the Townesends happily combined the professions of architect, mason, and builder. Howe"er, after about 1820, the national increase of population encouraged the growth in London and elsewhere of an architec­ tural profession, and Oxford was not slow to attract a number of vigorous practitioners. The two earliest figures of any interest are Daniel Robertson (/I. 1826-33), designer of St. Clement's Church and the University Press, and Henry Jones Underwood (1804-52), who was accomplished in 'either style' and is now most often remembered for Littlemore Church, a landmark of early ccclesiology, and St. Paul's Church, Walton Street. Of course, there was a natural tendency for the more talented or ambitious architects to move to London once they had secured a flourishing practice. George Edmund Street is a good example; he laid the foundations of his career at ~Ta ntage (1850-2), and at Oxford (1852-5), and then removed to London, although he remained Diocesan Architect until his death in 1881 . • Those who have helped with this article are unfortunately too many to be named individually.

  • THE Old Dragon
    N i O RAG D ART THE OLD 2012 · ISSUE 2 Olympian Achievements As Seen on TV Supporting the Dragon In Time of War OD News and Events 2012 · ISSUE 2 Dear ODs It gives me great pleasure to commend to you this second annual edition of The OD magazine featuring OD careers and lives together with news of achievements over the past year. Since the last issue the school has seen a busy year of activities, accomplishments and noteworthy scholarship results. There have been many sporting triumphs including one of the most outstanding rugby seasons on record. In the creative and performing arts the quality of work and performance have been excellent. OD-wise there have been two very successful reunions; the invitation to the reunion for Pre-1950s Leavers prompted an enthusiastic response from ODs and 200 guests attended a happy occasion in November. March saw another enjoyable event when 163 ODs returned to the school for the reunion of 1970-75 Leavers. It is wonderful to see so many ODs coming back to the Dragon with such warm memories. The JOD Day takes places next spring, I hope we shall see many more of you then too. As ever, it gives me great pleasure to hear from you and to welcome ODs of all generations back to the school. The OD Office can arrange a personal visit and tour of the School on weekdays; you might be surprised and encouraged to see what has changed and what remains very much intact. Contact details for the OD Office can be found at the back of the magazine.
