*Reader Photos* Tour of Oxford, England - Inspiration for Alice



The father of Alice Liddell, the inspiration for Alice, was a Dean at Christ Church, Oxford. Lewis Carroll lived and worked here.


My daughter is still in Oxford and took some photos for us.


 
Christ Church hall - this was also the inspiration for Hogwart's dining hall.

Portrait of Alice's father.



The building and its environs are said to be Inspirations for Alice.
