Jericho Street and Albert Street, Jericho

Image: © Stephen McKay Taken: 11 Jul 2020

The Jericho district of Oxford, with its tidy terraced houses, has become a fashionable suburb among young professionals - named among the top 20 'hip' locations in the country. It was not always so; in the 1960s the 19th century houses were in a rundown condition and there were proposals for comprehensive redevelopment which was avoided only by a concerted campaign to save Jericho. In this view, looking from Jericho Street across Albert Street into Victor Street, the tower of St Barnabas Church looks over the rooftops.
