The Radcliffe Camera is named after Dr. John Radcliffe who left the money in his will for the building of a Science library. It is now a reading room for the Bodleian Library to which it is connected by a tunnel. Although the original design was by Nicholas Hawksmoor he died before the building was started and James Gibbs was appointed to carry out the work. His plan was for a rectangular building but he was persuaded to conform to Hawksmoor’s design for a domed circular library. |
