The Medieval Murder Maps, assembled by Cambridge's Institute of Criminology, is a website plotting crimes based on 700-year-old coroners' inquests.

It launched in 2018 covering London, but has now expanded its reach to Oxford and York.

Professor Manuel Eisner said Oxford had a "deadly mix of conditions" which contributed to the high homicide rate.

He said the combination of young male students and alcohol was a "powder keg for violence".
