Exeter College (The Rector and Scholars of Exeter College in the University of Oxford) is one of the constituent colleges of the University of Oxford and the fourth oldest college of the University. The college is located on Turl Street, where it was founded in 1314 by Devon-born Walter de Stapledon, Bishop of Exeter, as a school to educate clergymen. From its foundation Exeter was popular with the sons of the Devonshire gentry and has been associated with a number of notable people, including the writer J. R. R. Tolkien. St Michael at the North Gate is a church in Cornmarket Street, at the junction with Ship Street. The church is so-called because this is the location of the original north gate of Oxford when it was surrounded by a city wall.
