DETAILS:
The modern Oxford Jewish community, dating back to 1842, has built its first mikvah (immersion pool for orthodox Jewish women) in the grounds of the Oxford Chabad House, together with a new community centre.

The front elevation is clad in timber, and the roof acts as a rainwater collector for the immersion pool within.

Two luxurious bathrooms lead into the mikvah pool.
