More about this scene
The jumble of gables and chimneys on the right of the street represents a 17th-century house; opposite it is the entrance to Chichele College, founded by Archbishop Chichele in 1422. The College was built around a quadrangle. It housed twenty members, including eight chaplains, four clerks and six choristers. Henry VIII later dissolved Chichele College, and the buildings were ruinous by the 18th century.
