Tolkien's undergraduate college, where a Finnish grammar from the library felt "like discovering a complete wine-cellar".

Tolkien's college for 20 years as Professor of Anglo-Saxon, when he wrote The Hobbit and the first two books of The Lord of the Rings.

Tolkien's college when The Lord of the Rings was published, and where he spent his final years in a flat on Merton Street.

The library that holds the world's largest collection of Tolkien's manuscripts and drawings, kept here since 1979.

The Inklings' pub, closed since 2020 and now being restored, where Tolkien and C.S. Lewis met on Tuesday mornings.

Where the Inklings moved in 1962, after the Eagle and Child opened up their private back room.

Where Tolkien's favourite black pine stood until 2014, and where a new pine grown from its seed was planted in 2021.

The grave Tolkien shares with his wife Edith, carved with the names Beren and Lúthien from his greatest love story.
