Balliol College, one of the colleges of Oxford University, operates a day nursery located in Rawlinson Road.[4] History and residentsThe area where Rawlinson Road is located was originally owned by St John's College, Oxford. The road was named after Dr Richard Rawlinson FRS (1690–1755), an antiquarian and divine.[5] Houses in the road were first leased by the college between 1888 and 1893.[1] They were designed by the architects Harry Wilkinson Moore and Herbert Quinton. The houses are in a late Victorian style and of brick construction.[6] The Irish-born mathematician John Edward Campbell (1862–1924) lived at 14 Rawlinson Road.[7] Harriet Shaw Weaver (1876–1961), political activist and magazine editor, lived at 4 Rawlinson Road.[8] The Hungarian-born member of the House of Lords and economist Thomas Balogh, Baron Balogh (1905–1985) lived in Rawlinson Road with his family.[9] Derbyshire House Hotel was located at 18 Rawlinson Road.[10][11] The poet John Betjeman (1906–1984) wrote of Rawlinson Road:[12] {{quote|Too much, too many! so fetch the doctor, This dress has grown such a heavier load And rents were lower in Rawlinson Road. }} Sir Richard Doll (1912–2005), the epidemiologist and cancer pioneer, lived at 12 Rawlinson Road and a blue plaque was installed on his house in 2015.[13][14] He lived here with his wife Joan Faulkner after his retirement in 1983.[15] References1. ^1 {{cite book | title=North Oxford | last=Hinchcliffe | first=Tanis | year=1992 | publisher=Yale University Press | location=New Haven & London | pages=85, 126, 212, 235–236 | isbn=0-14-071045-0}} {{coord|51.7687|-1.2641|region:GB_type:landmark|display=title}}{{Oxfordshire-geo-stub}}{{England-road-stub}}2. ^{{cite web| title=How To Find Us | url=http://www.oxfordhigh.gdst.net/contact-us/how-to-find-us/ | publisher=Oxford High School | accessdate=31 August 2012}} 3. ^{{cite book | title=Instructive Journey: An Essay in Autobiography | first=Nicholas | last=Rescher | authorlink=Nicholas Rescher | url=https://books.google.com/books?id=tKqPKerDqeEC&pg=PA193 | page=193 | publisher=University Press of America | year=1997 | isbn=978-0761805861 }} 4. ^{{cite web| title=Nursery | url=http://www.balliol.ox.ac.uk/about-balliol/nursery | publisher=Balliol College, Oxford | accessdate=31 August 2012}} 5. ^{{cite book | title=The Changing Faces of North Oxford | volume=Book One | publisher=Robert Boyd Publications | last=Symonds | first=Ann Spokes | chapter=Buildings and Gardens | page=13 | year=1997 | isbn=1-899536-25-6}} 6. ^{{cite book | title=The Buildings of England: Oxfordshire |last1=Sherwood |first1=Jennifer |last2=Pevsner |first2=Nikolaus |authorlink2=Nikolaus Pevsner |year=1974 | publisher=Penguin Books | page=321 | isbn=0-14-071045-0}} 7. ^{{cite book | title=Year-book of the Royal Society of London | year=1916 | url=https://books.google.com/books?id=tlAa7nJMOE0C&pg=PA9 | page=9 | publisher=Royal Society / Elibron.com | isbn=978-0543925404 }} 8. ^{{cite book | title=The Letters of Sylvia Beach | first1=Sylvia | last1=Beach | authorlink1=Sylvia Beach | first2=Noėl Riley | last2=Fitch | editor-first=Keri | editor-last=Walsh | url=https://books.google.com/books?id=CflTGy83dkAC&pg=PA256 | page=256 | publisher=Columbia University Press | year=2011 | isbn=978-0231145374 }} 9. ^{{cite book | title=The Life And Times of Thomas Balogh: A Macaw Among Mandarins | first=June | last=Morris | url=https://books.google.com/books?id=RIyzp3AmHg8C&pg=PA46 | page=46 | publisher=Sussex Academic Press | year= 2007 | isbn=978-1845191535 }} 10. ^{{cite book| title=Kelly's Directory of Oxford | edition=68th | chapter=Rawlinson Road | publisher=Kelly's Directories | page=429 | year=1976}} 11. ^{{cite news| title=Derbyshire House | url=http://connection.ebscohost.com/c/articles/22805593/derbyshire-house | magazine=The New Yorker | volume=37 | issue=42 | page=195 | date=2 December 1961 }} 12. ^{{cite book | title=Literary Englands: Versions of 'Englishness' in Modern Writing | first=David | last=Gervais | url=https://books.google.com/books?id=RZTXHIp3FiUC&pg=PA199 | page=199 | publisher=Cambridge University Press | year=1993 | isbn=9780521443388 }} 13. ^{{cite news| title=Plaque honours eminent cancer pioneer | page=22 | newspaper=The Oxford Times | date=11 June 2015 }} 14. ^{{cite web| title=Sir Richard Doll (1912–2005): Epidemiologist – 12 Rawlinson Road, Oxford | url=http://www.oxfordshireblueplaques.org.uk/plaques/doll.html | publisher=Oxfordshire Blue Plaques Scheme | location=UK | accessdate=12 June 2015 }} 15. ^{{cite web| title=Commemorative blue plaque unveiled at Richard Doll's former home | url=http://www.gtc.ox.ac.uk/news-and-views/news-articles/1292-commemorative-blue-plaque-unveiled-at-richard-doll-s-former-home.html | publisher=Green Templeton College, Oxford | location=UK | accessdate=12 June 2015 }} 4 : 1888 establishments in England|Streets in Oxford|Blue plaques|Balliol College, Oxford |
