floor was added and only open to the public, two afternoons a week. Located
in the High Street on the site of a medieval church, this church was built in 1707-8 
and was said to be designed by Henry Aldrich, Dean of Christ Church. The tower was 
not completed until 1718, and incorporates Nicholas Hawksmoor's ideas.

St. Aldate
Originally a Saxon church, it was rebuilt in 1004. In 1636 it became part of Pembroke
College, serving as the college chapel until 1732, when their present chapel was built. 
Of particular note are the three eastern bays and the vaulted crypt, dating from 
Edward III's time. The north aisle was built in 1455, and has an arcade of five arches 
from the Norman chancel. The font is decorated with lions and leaves at the foot, 
quatrefoils with faces on the body and with a frieze of angels' heads and wings above. 
The octagonal spire-shaped font cover is seventeenth century and decorated with paintings.
The church has been known as St. Eldred's, St. Aldade's, St. Ald's, St. Old's, St. Olave's,
St. Oolde's, St. Aldgate's and St. Toll's. Experts now believe the name merely refers to
the Old Gate it once stood beside. One of the pillars has the following inscription:

Located in the angle between Woodstock Road and Banbury Road. The building
dates from the 1130s, but only a few traces of Norman masonry have survived
the extensive restorations of the 19th century. The church has exceptional
examples of Early English windows. The famous St. Giles Fair in September
started as a 'wake' at this church. The tower of St. Giles's church is not aligned 
with the nave, the north wall is longer than the south, the nave is wider at one 
end than it is at the other, no two arches in the nave have the same span, and the
chancel arch is central neither to the nave nor to the chancel.

St. James, Cowley
This church in Beauchamp Lane is the parish church of Cowley. St. James came to
Osney Abbey in 1149 and the remaining Norman parts, may well date from just after
that. G. E. Street restored and in doing so practically rebuilt the church between 1862-5
(see entries for St. Mary, Iffley at this time). The nave roof was heightened, hence causing
the tower to appear stunted. The exterior of the church is now rendered.

25th August 1864 - Marriage of Henry CHAUNDY and Mary Neal MAXEY 5

St. Martin
All that remains of this church is the tower (Carfax Tower), the rest
being demolished in the 1896. Every quarter of an hour the quarter-boys, 
known as Gog and Magog, strike their bells on the 17th century clock 
(the originals are in the Museum of Oxford). The 14th century tower is
shorter than the original, as the citizens were ordered to remove the
top sections to prevent them dropping missiles on the students below.
St. Martins was the city church and saw many 'town and gown' fights.
The octagonal font is without a foot or stem and has been moved to 
All Saints and then St Michael, Cornmarket Street.

show scenes about the history of the church and the city, glass by

in it is preserved one of the most poignant relics in all Oxford, the
