2014 is the centenary of the Great War and Somerville College Archives will be commemorating the events of 1914 – 1918 through this blog. Regularly updated to reflect the real-time impact of the war on the College,  including Somerville’s role as a military hospital, the College’s evacuation to Oriel and the wide variety of war work undertaken by alumni, students and staff, the archives reveal rarely explored aspects of life on the home front.
