Random find in Oxford, it's not historic but it's fun to go and look at, not sure I would want that sticking out of my roof
Randomly came across this shark sticking out of the roof of a house in Oxford, England!
The one and only headington shark (aka Bill). It has a great story attached to it, and has just had its 25th Birthday!

8/10 Very Good! (1,138 reviews)
Room and bathroom clean, showing slight wear and not the most modern in tech or amenities. Staff were polite although not especially enthusiastic. Note from cleaner was very sweet - thank you! Free water in fridge was a bonus.
