Rock-dropping seagull closes university building
15 April 2025

A University of Oxford building has been closed for almost a week after a seagull broke a glass roof by repeatedly dropping a stone on it.

A spokesperson for the Blavatnik School of Government has confirmed the bird caused damage to a glass panel on the roof on Wednesday.

In a video from the Oxford Clarion, the bird can be seen bouncing a large stone off the glass roof of the building.
A spokesperson for the school said it remained closed while work was undertaken to repair the glass panel.
