The Oxonian 'Bridge of Sighs', as it is popularly called, was designed by Sir Thomas Graham Jackson in the style of the famous Bridge of Sighs in Venice. Its proper name is Hertford Bridge as it connects two parts of Hertford College: the new buildings across New College Lane with the old part of the college. Though matching the style of those buildings, the Bridge of Sighs was constructed as late as 1913. Very young for Oxford! Leave a Comment

 the strange bridge by mindcrime
This is because it was designed by Sir Thomas Jackson in the style of the famous Bridge of Sighs in Venice.
This little bridge connects two parts of Hertford College, the new and the old part! Of course the bridge is much more younger than the one in Venice as it was constructed in 1914. Directions: city center

 Bridge of Sighs by sabsiLeave a Comment

The Bridge of Sighs (1913-4) is a noted landmark west of the town centre, located along New College Lane. The bridge is named after the famous Italian bridge "Ponte di Sospiri" in the enchanting city of Venezia. Due east in Oxford, near Abingdon, is the Thames riverfront. Around here are beautiful Venetianesque brick buildings, as captured. Leave a Comment

 Bridge of Sighs in Oxford by coceng
The first college was built in the 13th century & one of them was called 'university'.
Today, there are 39 colleges spreading over Oxford.
This is the infamous Bridge of Sighs, which is a copy of the famous bridge in Venice ! So I head that it looks nothing like the real one in Venice !
Built in 1914 between 2 buildings of Hertford College. Leave a Comment

If you don't know where to look?, you will miss this beautiful piece of architecture known as the 'Bridge of Sighs'. It is really called The Hertford bridge, but that doesn't have the same nice ring to it does it?. It is hidden well beyond the main streets of Oxford, it's such a shame, it really is one of the beautiful parts of Oxford to see.
It has obviously been copied from the Bridge in Venice, but it is still a wonderful sight to behold.
