Jericho, Oxford
A number of wheel ramps enable cyclists to manoeuvre their bikes over this footbridge from Mount Place, Jericho to the towpath beside the Oxford Canal (ahead). In April 1859 a request was made to the Oxford Canal Company to erect a bridge across the canal. However, the Company rejected this due to concerns that a bridge was likely to lead an increase in trespassers on the towpath. In 1868 a public ferry service began operating from the end of nearby Combe Road (referred to as Ferry Road at the time). This service continued for almost 100 years until it was replaced by the Mount Place footbridge in 1972. Mount Place, a small Square at the foot of these stairs, links to Canal Street.

Cranham Street, Jericho
Jericho consists mainly of small terraced houses built for the working class of Oxford in the 19th century. By the 1960s it had become run down and there were plans for comprehensive redevelopment. This never happened and instead many of the houses were refurbished, although the worst cases were demolished and replaced by modern buildings; nowadays the area is populated largely by young professionals and is regarded as a prime example of urban regeneration. In this view, examples of old and new housing can be seen where Cranham Street meets Canal Street.
