Binsey Church St Margaret of Antioch

St Frideswide had ever stopped at this spot and digged the famous well whose water cured many people nearby thanks to God.

I absolutely love this place. Its tucked away in the middle of nowhere, accessible by foot down a lane or you can park on the side of the lane but space is limited. I first came across this church when my wife was diagnosed with cancer. It offered me peace and space to order my thoughts. Through her illness and later passing I have visited many times , and although not religious this simple church has lifted my spirits. You won't find anything fancy stain glass here though outside stands St Margaret's Well, which is the model forLewis carrolls Treacle Well fromAlice in wonderland this is a holy well dedicated toSt frideswide.

I've lived in Oxford all my life and until recently I hadn't explored Binsey past the Perch pub!! A lovely old church!

(Translated by Google) The church never closes. Church of the 12th century. There is no electricity and services are held by candlelight. At any time, everyone can come and pray. Nearby is a well in which healing water is considered. Childless people and people with eye problems go to this well and this church for help. Very interesting and beautiful place (Original) . 12 . . . .
