Scope and content
River Court is the area between the southern elevation of First Court facing the river and the river. This area of land was bought by Dr Peter Peckard (Master 1781-97) for the College from the City and from Jesus College in 1790-91. The cottages on the site were not cleared until 1873 when Penrose laid out a garden and designed the ornamental gates.
The gates and piers were re-erected in 1983.
