The Church is 3 minutes walk from Oxford Train Station. It is located south of Frideswide Square, behind the old Jam Factory. It can be accessed via Becket Street or Hollybush Row and then St Thomas Street.
The 12th century mother church of west Oxford, under the patronage of St Thomas Becket, Archbishop of Canterbury in the 1100s. A fascinating church with a long history, standing at the gateway to a busy city, as it did originally stand at the gate to the mediaeval Abbey of Osney.
