In the the summer of 1920, Mrs. Moore and her daughter Maureen moved to Oxford and rented a house in Headington Quarry. Lewis lived with the Moores from June 1921 onward. In August 1930, they all moved to ''Hillsboro'', Headington. In October 1930, Mrs. Moore, Lewis, and Warren Lewis, by now an Army Major, purchased ''The Kilns'' jointly, with title to the property being taken solely in the name of Mrs. Moore and the two brothers holding rights of life tenancy. Major Lewis retired from the military and moved in to the ''The Kilns'' in 1932. The nature of the relationship between Lewis and Mrs. Moore has been the subject of much speculation, although it is most likely that he looked to her as a surrogate for his own dead mother, and she likewise for her dead son. Lewis' stepson Douglas Gresham stated in his biography of Lewis that the relationship "''will remain a mystery''".<ref>'''Gresham, Douglas''', ''Lenten Lands: My Childhood with Joy Davidman and C.S. Lewis'' London: Collins (1988) ISBN 0-0606-3447-2</ref>

Between October 1924 and May 1925, Lewis held the post of philosophy tutor at University College, Oxford while the permanent tutor, E.F. Carritt, took an absence for study leave in the [[United States of America|America]]. Lewis had earlier been published for the first time, when the February 1919 issue of the popular British newspaper ''Reveille'' carried his poem "Death in Battle." That same year, a collection of his poems, ''Spirits in Bondage'', was published, under the pseudonym Clive Hamilton.
