Radcliffe Observatory
The Radcliffe Observatory is a historical landmark and Green Templeton Collegeβs centrepiece.Β
Meteorological records commenced here in 1772, and for almost 200 years this listed building served as the only astronomical observatory of the University of Oxford (1773-1934). The Observatory has been used since as a medical research facility, a teaching centre and now a hub for the college.Β
Currently, Green Templeton is focussed on the long-term preservation of the Observatory, aligning with the collegeβs net-zero carbon emissions plan and providing much needed repair and maintenance.
