New Court, built by William Wilkins (of National Gallery fame) in 1825. The Chapel is on the left, with a bit of the famous Parker Library on the right. Photo taken from a third-floor window similar to the one seen in the top right; this floor was not designed by Wilkins but was plonked on top of the battlements in the 1920s, long before listed building status came along, thereby upsetting the careful architectural harmony of the court.
