1605 map of central Oxford, England, by John Speed. Note that south is at the top of the map.
John Speed's map of Oxford, 1605. North is at the bottom. Oxford is still a walled city, but there some buildings are outside the walls, including Magdalen College.
- "P" is Oxford Castle
- "N" is Oxford's central crossroads at the junction of the High Street and St Aldates. Broad Street and Holywell Street now run along the line of the north (that is bottom) wall.
