Would You like to live back in the 1920s??
Only if you could guarantee my health and a reasonable income.
Colour, not color
@@Roadrunner_1000 You forgot no antibiotics and primitive dentistry ....
No. We would have been called up in the army 15 years later.
Absolutely
Thank the person who took the time to capture this footage in 1920...
It was graduation day obviously.
AND THOSE WHO RESTORED AND COLOURISED IT ETC.
Must have taken ages to upload it to UA-cam back then!
There’s always an air of mythical-ness watching these, as if old story books came to life. I always meditate on the person behind the camera with these footage. A person who had the means to own a camera and took their weekend/leisure time to snap these for who knows what reason. So lucky to live in a timeline where we can see all this.
Yes. The photographer was actually standing in the centre of Carfax crossing!
Well said. The place and time we're watching is so far removed from ours it could almost be a work of fiction.
@@phillipecook3227Yes, and only 100 years ago. I wonder how it will look in 2124.
Cars hadn't even been around very long and already they are everywhere, companies already ruthlessly competeing. The roads here are dominated by them, anybody older than 20 years must have been amazed, also by the cameras.
"myth" is the word you're looking for
I was born and raised just outside of Oxford, also worked and socialised in the city centre, truly lovely to see this footage, thank you.
A big thankyou to all involved, the filming brought back many memories. My father was Head Porter at Worcester College about 35 years after this film was originally shot. We lived in an old stone college house standing in-between Beaumont Street and Gloucester Green, just opposite the College main gate. The Ashmolean Museum was a 100 yards up the road, the Playhouse Theatre even closer. Could walk to Carfax in 10 minutes. We could see the Porter's Lodge from our garden. I was ten years old and stayed living with my parents until after my 21st birthday. I was very privileged as a young person to experience the quite different life of " Town and Gown " and to meet many people from all over the world- I could name drop but I won't! They were wonderful days and this film made me very nostalgic for those days. Many thanks ...
3:54 The view up the High from Queens Lane bus stop, where I would wait with my brother for a bus to school. Being born and raised in Oxford in the 50s-70s, I thought all cities were like that. Was most surprised to find that they were not…
Oxford had remarkably wide streets for a town plotted in the Middle Ages.
The wide streets are outside the city walls. Within the city walls are still narrow streets. Much of medieval Oxford was destroyed by the university when individual colleges were built.
Those streets are no longer wide.
The streets would need to be wide to accommodate horses and carriages travelling in either direction.
Lots of medieval cities in England have a small number of wide streets and a myriad of narrow - sometimes very narrow alleyways - running off them. In medieval times, the wide streets were where markets were held as well as certain trades and civic activities requiring space.
St Giles was wide because of the livestock that was driven along it.
It is an odd feeling to recognize the places where I go every day in this footage. Main difference seems to be far less signage in the street space.
I don't recognise the building with the unusual Solomonic columns seen on the right, around the 4.33 mark. Was it demolished or was it destroyed during the war?
@@jbuk4369 It's the entrance of University Church of St Mary the Virgin, on the High Street. The columns are still there today but their actual colour blends into the rest of the building and they're easy to miss. Something about the colourisation of this video emphasises the shadows and they really stand out. Have a look on google and you'll see how the church looks today, pretty much the same.
@@jbuk4369 That is the entrance to St. Mary's. Still around.
@@anderssandberg5759 Thank you so much. I don't know how I could have missed it. I must have walked past St. Mary's at some point, or maybe it was one of the city's treasures that I somehow missed. Anyway, I went to their website and there it was; complete with squiggly columns! God bless.
And lack of advertising.
Thank you for all the hard work you do with restoring and colorizing our past so it's not forgotten.
thank you very much ;))

@@BodywiseMustardit’s the US english.
Somewhere in that city at that time, JRR Tolkien was thinking about writing The Hobbit. The rest is history.
Wow, you're RIGHT 😯
Where is George Orwell?
Tolkien may even be in it.
And CS Lewis?
Tell me you wouldn’t like to time travel there. I can’t imagine the thrill of being able to do such a thing….
I was raised in the UK and moved to the US forty years ago. Next month, my wife and I will visit Oxford for the first time. I expect most of the buildings in this film will still be there. I recognize some of the places from Morse.
Enjoy your trip! Would be interested to hear what you think of Oxford, am planning to visit there myself someday.
May I extend a very warm welcome to you both...
It’s pretty much the same. Maybe slightly busier than some of the clips, and a more ‘diverse’ city - Looks like Canton sometimes, a trans-rally at others. I’d go during the week. Still lovely though. Enjoy your trip!
Expect a non white community .
I went to Oxford University and the locations in this footage are mostly recognisable. Thankfully, Oxford was largely spared from bombing during WW2.
Born and raised here, as were my family going back 1000+ years. It's fascinating to think this was my great grandfathers era.
Me too, it’s wonderful to visit the village cemetery and see the graves of all my forebears. Ancestors that fought for the people of this country through not only world wars but other conflicts. Do people of today care or is this country changed for good?
Curious. How did you manage to track your family tree back over one thousand years? What written accounts and records did you reference? Very few such extended timelines exist outside of the Royal Family. Astonishing. Thank you.
@@marknestboxyou get his point I’m sure. 🏴
My grandfather was 11 when this was filmed and lived 1 mile away.
Born and raised in Oxford with family history going back 3000 years, so we are natives. Where did your family emigrate from 1000 years ago?
Nass, Another great upload. Reminds me of the 1980's TV series "Brideshead Revisited" with a young Jeremy Irons & Anthony Andrews as young rich lads in Oxford University in the 1920's. Thanks for the upload.

so recognisable...
A very good and appreciated job to catalogue all the great buildings and streets. Excellent super good!!
Thank you for taking the time and trouble to do this🙏🏻👋🏻
Many thanks for this - very helpful. I think 6:05 is Radcliffe Square, between Radcliffe Camera and the University Church, looking towards Brasenose College. Grass then and cobbles now - very unexpected!
The major difference is really the blackness of the buildings - now all the stonework has been cleaned back to the original honey-gold.
Why, when it comes to architecture, does absolutely everything look more beautiful than stuff today?
Totally agree. Oxford is now blighted by some monstrous buildings.
Yes. This has been done on purpose.
@@jasbo9734 Plus scores of non-English people.
Because today we can't afford such buildings.
@@tommiatkins3443 Nah, it’s nothing to do with money; it’s to do with much of modern architecture being sh*t in the face of this pulchritude.
Most of the faces are too dark which is a pity, but for a video from 1924 this is still amazing. Thanks.
Wondered why they all looked black. Glad I’m not the only one who noticed!
@@kirstymackenzie2437Be careful, the Kier Stasi will have you arrested for racism.
@@kirstymackenzie2437it’s because the footage was recorded on a 1920s camera where the quality isn’t that good

0.30 = Broad Street. I was there yesterday and it's barely changed. Thank you, from an Oxonian.
thank you very much
My dad was born in 1921 in Holywell st. My Grandparents could well be in that film somewhere. Remarkable footage!
‘Et in Arcadia Ego’ so evocative of Brideshead Revisited I half expect to see Charles and Sebastian walking arm in arm. Magical time to be living a comfortable and privileged life in Oxford but pretty rough and precarious for most people behind the scenes. Your videos are stunning and are a pleasure to watch but it just really emphasises how very transient we all are.
THE GRASS WITHERETH.
Beautiful, absolutely beautiful. Makes me feel very sad though too. Only 100 years ago. What a difference
Full of foreigners now..
Very nice mate, thanks again for sharing!!🙃😉
thank you very much
Where did everything go? This green and pleasant land…..now utterly ruined by politicians.
The 'green and pleasant land' where millions lived in appalling housing conditions, TB and other deadly diseases were rife. Ah yes, the good old days!
Agreed. A land increasingly populated by immigrants whose values are at odds with a thousand years of history and who have no desire to fit in and knuckle under.
@@nevillemason6791 you really think today is better? utterly delusional

@@johnlynch4901
The turning point was 1948 startof the Windrush generation. 😪😪😪Not only did they want to come here they wanted to destroy our culture. I think it’s safe to say that I have succeeded.
Whoever filmed this had a really good eye for composition given that cinematography was still in it's infancy.
Very well presented, nice to see vintage cars in their prime - many Morrises, of course, a nice Vauxhall 30/98 at 1.15, a Riley Redwing (a real undergrad sporty car) at 2.52, and a RR Silver Ghost at 9.30.
Amazing Work NASS!
Thx!! ^^
@@NASS_0It’s an honour for you to have done my suggestion!
This is why young men wanted to join the forces to fight for their country because it was their country not like today and that's the difference
Well dressed people. no litter. no traffic jams.
Yes no people like you also
Many less things to actually drop.
@carlpierce2486 that is true.
The average man in the 20s would have had 3 suits - a winter worsted, a summer worsted and his Sunday best. Imagine having that limit on your wardrobe now.
No litter - mostly because there wasn't the variety of infinitely cheap random rubbish to buy and eat.
And no traffic jams because to buy a car you were probably in the top 1% of the country.
@@carlpierce2486 That is such an appalling excuse, if that is what it is?
Thank you NASS for all your gorgeous uploads, they transport me to another world.❤

Lovely capture of beautiful Oxford in a bygone age. I was there in the sixties and had great fun.

Thx bro!
Love it! I live in Oxford and to be honest it hasn’t changed much, apart from being allowed to drive through the city back then! Brilliant, thanks for finding, restoring and sharing!

Those poor souls, living without cultural enrichment and diversity... how lucky we are today
Great to see this. I had forgotten how much soot there was on buildings in those days (and up to the 1950s). The added sound is well done, but I did wonder if it was really that noisy in those days. Judging by the number of motor vehicles shown, I doubt if there would have been that dull background roar that we get nowadays (until EVs take it away again).
Reminds me of "Brideshead Revisited," set in Oxford in that period.
I wish England was still like that. My heart aches.

Look how clean those streets are. Beautiful cars, buildings and people going about their business in relative peace. Fast forward 100 years- how times change
It's Oxford. The only thing that's changed is there are fewer cars and more bikes. Despite being a car fan it's a marked improvement.
I live in Oxford and work in the centre of town. It looks exactly the same, and I go about my business in relative peace.
These restorations and colourising of old movies are incredibly impressive. Well done !
Thx!!!!
Curious, it looks like we had more cyclists back then than nowadays 😢
A University town/city will always have more cyclists.
That was before car loans. LOL. Even bikes were expensive.
I think there would be more bikes than in this video today in Cambridge. And also in places like Amsterdam.
This is wonderful to watch, "that sweet city with her dreaming spires". I wish I lived back then, when Oxford was Oxford and England was England, instead of now, it's changed so for the worse! How well and modestly dressed all were in those days. I hadn't realised quite the extent of how uniformly smoke blackened all the buildings were back then.
(Rather disconcerting to hear two times on the soundtrack the modern cry for "Big Issue!" 😆)
i would take a one way trip to Oxford of the 1920s any day
Thank you to the original photgrapher and to you for, I think, enhancing the film by adding sounds and colour - there is a point with a man on a bike and he looks at the camera and it is as if you have caught the eye of a stranger in the City for a moment rather than glimpsing a monochrome figure in silence. The scene in front of the 1924 photographer must have sounded much the same as your recreation of it - thank you.
The city has hardly changed on the High st but Cornmarket and St Aldates has very much altered ( demolitions and rebuilding) in 100 years. This was the era of the start of massive growth of the car factories in Cowley and then the building of Barton and the estates of the 30s.
Beautiful "Bullnose" Morris Oxford (or Cowley) featured in several scenes. My Grandfather owned one for several years during the 1920's and toured extensively on weekends with the family.
1920s *
You may be thinking of the apostrophe in '20s
Extraordinary. One hundred years ago brought "back to life". Thank you so much.
Wonderful to see the women in their undergraduate gowns; I didn't realize women students were admitted to the university that early.
Early? Well..
They had only just been allowed to graduate! 1920. First women's college was 1878.
@@Peteroranje That was a long course then. 42 years learning before you could graduate. Most of them didn't look that old! 😂
A quick Google check shows that women took their exams in 1879 but were not 'admitted to the University' until 1920, i.e. were not awarded their degree until that time, they were, instead, given a 'Certificate of Competence' which was generally considered to be equivalent.
The 1st British University Degrees awarded to women were by the University of London in 1878.
Wonderful impressions of a marvellous city, thank you very much for sharing
I love that any one of those people could time travel 100 years into the future or past and still be able to find their way around
A lot more civilised than it is now
I was born and raised in Oxford, and it's evident that it has changed a lot.
Yet each street and location is completely recognisable. I know exactly where they are in almost every shot due to such historic and recognisable buildings. The shops are different and the cars are different and some buildings have been replaced, but so much has been up-kept (no doubt by the university).
I feel sorry for all the baby boys in the early 1920s. They would be the first in-line for the trenches less than 20 years later! Born in the quiet calm of Oxfordshire and destined for the hell of War!
Trenches?
@@david-spliso1928 some trenches were dug during the second World, ...but that's not really my point ...as I think you know. . .!
@@adamhughes4442 I see your point but trenches in WW2 were very rare following advanced mechanisation. Ergo it's not known for trench warfare. Still sad as you point out that any of them had to go to war, even if it was generally nowhere near as devastatingly bloody as the First for British lads.
My dad was born in 1924. He landed in Normandy on D-Day 3, at the age of 19.
Oxford and Buckinghamshire light infantry, well known for the horsa glider attack capturing pegasus bridge and liberating the first building in France (the cafe next to the bridge) on D-Day. They captured and held the bridge until relieved by paras a few hours later. They would have been children or young men at the time of this footage.
Someone needs to tell them that they are driving on the wrong side of the road.
Haha 😂😅 Good ❤
LOL. As a Brit I watch so many North American vids that I get cognitive dissonance when watching British vids featuring driving. Luckily when I do drive, my years of driving on the left kicks in (everyone will be relieved to know). 😊😊
What language you speaking boy?!... 😉
Tea ready? Hope we have cool cucumber sandwiches with the crusts cut off. Avocado, yes!
Amazing how Oxford's infrastructure has managed to stay nearly identical to what it was 100 years ago. I could recognize where almost every shot was taken - places I walk every day living here!
Everyone is dressed to the 9s...
Hi Jef!! ^^
@@NASS_0🙋🏻
Fantastic film. I love that it shows the dawn of the motoring age. What were presumably cobblestone streets have received asphalt presumably not long before this was shot. However, no signage, no road markings and no traffic lights as yet.
Not the "dawn" of "The Motoring Age" - definitely into adulthood by then. The car had been around for some 30 years when this was filmed and the era of "mass production" was well under way. Eg - by 1926, 150,000 examples of the "Bullnose" Morris Oxford had been made.
Did anybody notice those loud foreign voices, as the camera panned past the Turkish barber and the vape shop next to the 12 takeaways?
Funny neither did I
And the American sweet or candy shops, the less classy tourist shops, the plastic signs, the begging, the drugs...
We need desperately to take the country back for our children and grandchildrens sakes .
Racists in the comments.
"You can see several scenes of Oxford and its Universities."
Actually, you only see _one_ university. There are now several universities in Oxford but the others didn't exist then, and are anyway not in the central area of the city shown in the video.
What we can see are several _colleges_ of the university, such as Balliol College, Trinity College, Christ Church, All Souls College, Oriel College, Merton College, New College, Magdalen College, Wadham College and one of Lady Margaret Hall, Somerville College, St Anne’s College, St Hilda’s College and St Hugh’s College. (Hat tip to Kit Sullivan for identifying them all in his invaluable comment.)
Also several buildings and facilities belonging to the University, such as the Clarendon Building, the Sheldonian Theatre, the University Church of St Mary the Virgin, the Bodleian Library and the Botanical Garden. (Thanks, Kit!)
Elegiac footage..looks around 1920, some horse
-drawn transport in evidence. The documentary is well-filmed and the compositions mostly well thought out…

The atmosphere looks clearer,the stone work not damaged by acid rain and the cars strange, they are so rare.

@@addedentry absolutely! My mother was a child in the 30s and once incurred the wrath of her mother by playing in bushes in the park in her Sunday whites which quickly turned black. Soot was everywhere

Nothing changed, really. The iconic buildings are still the same. Oxford was just as busy as it is today. Only no horses these days :))) I know Oxford very well and love it. ❤️
So beautiful! We had an England, back then!! 😢
Well, as someone who grew up around there in the 1980s, I can tell you it is still very much there and very much the same. Just loads of tourists in the summer.
Great job, especially the natural sounds added. I'm loving these without any voiceovers.
The soundtrack isn't original

the anglo-saxon peace and order
Honestly it's amazing how much better the city looks now. Less soot on the buildings yet still the same buildings for the most part. Overall the city has barely changed outside of the traffic.
Amazing how the brotherhood is in the process of bringing all that is good to an end.

It lost its' way when it got rid of Jesus Christ. Everywhere you see that the morality of the bible has not been embraced there is nakedness, immodesty and rebellion. This was a time when there was a general fear of the good Lord and adherence to His principles of life even if they were not born again believers.
@@robbie12359 I don't recall Jesus Christ ever speaking out against nakedness, or immodesty, and as for rebellion, he was quite a rebel himself! All that 'love your neighbour' and 'don't judge others' and the kingdom of heaven being within, not in superficial so-called morality, was and remains strong stuff that tends to provoke a reaction.
@@papercup2517 Then you clearly haven't read the scriptures. God is very much against immodesty and Jesus, as the Word of God, wrote all the bible. You are referring to what He spoke in His earthly ministry and not the entirety of His word.
@@papercup2517 Jesus also said in John 7:24 we ate to judge righteously and the "judge not" idea from Matthew 7 is telling you not to judge in hypocrisy if you read the context. If you want the truth it is there for you. If you just want to repeat what those that hate God say then you will not listen. In John 10 Jesus said His sheep hear His voice. You are currently listening to the voice of those who oppose Christ Jesus the Lord.
@@robbie12359shut up man 😂 nobody cares about your little fairy tale.
I was trying to work out the time of year. From some of the shadows it must have not been far from June 20 but although it was sunny it did not seem to be too hot. It could have been late May, but I would have expected to see more undergraduates with gowns.
Life was so much more sedate; we have lost that for ever, however my grandmother who would have been about 17 when the Great War broke out, told me once that life had been so much less hurried and simpler before the first world war.
Great attention to detail NASS such as English voices. Though I reckon there’d be less car horns; the Brits are quite reserved in their use.
The world before Lycra & fast food.
A town of great beauty and historical events in Englands long history
It's a city.
What's happened to Britain compared to now 😢😢😢
Sure was fella! what with all the diseases under the sun spreading all over the place, no effective medication, poor sanitation, poverty and moldy slums, none of that central heating malarkey, hard underpaid labour, no work safety regulations, NO BENEFITS! (would you believe it?!), oh and only a few years after the worst war in the world, I agree mate, sure was a grand time for most people 👍
Those University buildings could have benefitted from high-pressure water cleaning
Coal fires, I think.
It's mad to think that some of my craziest nights out happened in these streets...
Hermosa Ciudad,antes que la destruyera el Maligno Hitler 🥺
Aquellos edificios si existieran hoy en día,serían una aportación arquitectónica muy bella😎
Lastima que casi que destruido por la guerra,pero este país,siguió con la frente en alto 😎
Brother, Oxford survived the war intact -- all of these buildings are standing today
There was almost no bombing in Oxford. Rumour had it thatHitler had intended to use Oxford as his showpiece/capital if he'd managed to invade.
It's today's Oxford that's fake. This is the real Oxford, before it became too self conscious.
Muito bonito, belo trabalho!! 👍👍👍👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻
thank you very much
That bobby is a living traffic light !
