Oakley Square Gardens in snow
Oakley Square is named after Oakley House, which was a seat of the landowner, the Duke of Bedford. The garden was laid out around 1845 and planned in conjunction with the terraces that now only survive along its northern side. The well-planted garden was originally for the use of the Duke, his heirs and those living in the Square. It is now open to the public. It had snowed all the previous day and this was the view the following afternoon. The red brick building to the right of the large tree is the Working Men's College. Founded in 1854 at Red Lion Square, it moved to Great Ormond Street in 1857 and to a new building here in Crowndale Road in 1905. For its full history see http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Working_Men's_College
