BALLIOL COLLEGE and THE JOWETT WALK BUILDING

Balliol College has given us a reduction in their normal rates (though our other suppliers have not) due to the possible disturbances caused by the construction of another student residence at Jowett Walk.

The site, at the eastern end of the campus next to the Master’s Field, will be completely enclosed, and most of the components assembled offsite resulting in reduced noise levels. Work will take place on weekdays between 8 AM and 4 PM. Most participants will be up by then, preparing to sing at the chapel until noon, and at lunch until 1 PM or later, so only those needing an afternoon nap may be inconvenienced by the project. Taking into account our two side-trips and the weekends, there will not be many days to worry about.

For former participants, this new residence is being constructed in the place where the car-park was.
