A plan for the buildings section?[edit]

Would we like a map of the buildings on the main page?

Merton College, Oxford, showing the ages of the buildings.

All my own work, but derived from the (less accurate) plan given in Highfield's "History of Merton College"

Thruston, thank you for adding the map, could you get the caption to display in the article? Also the in map text is rather small even on a laptop, but obviously the space for text is limited. TSventon (talk) 13:19, 6 August 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Done. The image syntax is a bit baffling at times. It now has a frame and it a bit bigger. Thruston (talk) 22:22, 7 August 2022 (UTC)[reply]
