My trip to Oxford


The Bodleian Library, Oxford. Tolkien decided that this building, which is part of the Bodleian Library, looks like Sauron's temple to Morgoth on Nümenor. In the Notion Club Papers (published in The Downfall of Sauron: The History of Middle Earth, Volume 9), the characters confuse the two buildings.



The Eagle and Child (aka the Bird and Babe), the pub where the Inklings used to chill.
