Oxford Foglift

My Scholarship entry - Oxford Foglift

The path opens up to a clearing, bookended by a lock and a viaduct. Just over the bridge is an enormous expanse of land. Legend has it that Alfred the Great bestowed this pasture (today, Port Meadow) on the Freeman of Oxford as a war spoil. Nearly nine hundred years after the Domesday Book, wild horses still graze in the fog. I clatter over the bridge, open the gate, and go in.
