There is a statue of John Radcliffe by Francis Bird on the gate tower of the quad.
[3] The architectural style of the quad matches that of the earlier main quadrangle immediately to the west, although this was by then incredibly old-fashioned for almost a century.
It is not a "quadrangle" in the same way as the main quadrangle, because it only has buildings on three sides; the fourth side is bounded by a high stone wall separating the garden of the Master's Lodgings to the south.
To the east is Logic Lane, a small cobbled lane through the College, connecting the High Street at the front of the College and Merton Street at the rear.
The Radcliffe Quad is where University College's matriculation photograph is taken at the start of each academic year.
