Lonely Planet review for Magdalen College
Stunning Magdalen College, pronounced maud-lin, has huge grounds along the River Cherwell, including a deer park. On 1 May it’s traditional for students to leap off Magdalen Bridge, although low water levels and recent injuries have led authorities to ban the practice (to no avail). Just opposite are the University Botanic Gardens established in 1631 and Britain’s oldest botanic gardens.
