This is said to be the oldest surviving graffiti in Oxford, and it has a new lick of paint:


Keble dinosaurs | ZV-E10 | two pairs of 2-frame stitches

From Wikipedia:

'... one of the longest lasting and still extant pieces of outdoor graffiti in Oxford. On a brick wall forming part of Keble College, opposite the Department of Statistics building, are two large dinosaurs in white and blue paint. The caption "REMEMBER WHAT HAPPENED TO THE DINOSAUR!" is next to the white dinosaur. By the blue dinosaur, perhaps intended to resemble an alligator, is a riposte "I DID, AND LOOK WHAT HAPPENED TO ME".

It is thought that the white graffiti, the earlier of the two, was the work of delegates at the Drapers' Conference at Keble in the early 1970s and was a reply to the students of Keble's neighbour St John's College who had formed the St John’s Destroy Keble Society.'

I have the unfortunate habit of forgetting to upload the photo before writing the post - hence the change of picture.

It was somewhere alnog the coast past the sea pool at some steps up off the rocks. I don't know Westward Ho! at all well and this was a couple of years back - came up when I was looking for something else, and I decided I liked it.
