Pembroke Square, Oxford

Pembroke Square, Oxford

Pembroke Square is a square in central Oxford, England, located to the west of St Aldate's and directly adjoining it.

The square is opposite the main entrance to Christ Church to the east, the largest Oxford college. Pembroke College, another Oxford college, has its main entrance at the south-west corner of the square, hence the name.

To the west at the north of the square is Beef Lane, although the road has now been incorporated within the walls of Pembroke College and converted into its "North Quad".
