To Woodstock road, that is. This was Grice's abode in Oxford. Not far from his beloved St. John's, and "Lamb and Flag" and "Bird and Baby" (in St. Giles' Rd).
Only when he moved to his castle up in the hills overlooking one of the most beautiful bays in the world that we may say he found the idyll he was always looking for.
But here's a cheer for the road, and the place -- where, yes, English Heritage should have a blue placque or two for who is for many the most influential of the English philosophers in the whole of the 20th century!

Woodstock has a good toponymy behind it. I hope!
