Nuffield is one of the newer Oxford colleges opened in the 1950s, but its tower with a copper spire is as dominant as any of the medieval ones.

The second-oldest surviving university in the world and the oldest in the English-speaking world. Although its exact date of foundation is unclear, there is evidence of teaching as far back as 1096.
