Fix this textOXFORD is known as the City of Spires,
Fix this textand one of these many spires belongs to
Fix this textthe Cathedral Church of Christ, which had its
Fix this textearly beginnings in the eighth-century church
Fix this textfounded by a Saxon prince for the use of his
Fix this textdaughter, St. Frideswide. This original church
Fix this textwas burnt by a party of marauding Danes
Fix this textabout the year a.d. 1000, but four years later
Fix this textit was rebuilt by Ethelred II, and in 1800
Fix this textfurther reconstruction took place under Robert
Fix this textCricklade, and the building as it appears today
Fix this textdates mainly from that period. Fragments of

Fix this textA unique feature about the See of Oxford
Fix this textis that the seat of the Bishop is in a building
Fix this textwhich also serves as the chapel to the College
Fix this textof Christ Church, so that the College Chapel
Fix this textis also the Cathedral of Oxford, and the Dean
Fix this textis at the same time head of the College and

Fix this textpendant-vaulted ceiling over the Nave which

Fix this textseen widows in which glass dating from 1330
Fix this textstill survives. A figure representing Thomas
Fix this textBecket is depicted, but without a head, which
Fix this textwas removed by order of Henry VIII. The

Fix this textwho resisted royal tyranny so successfully, con-
Fix this textsequently he ordered that all representations of
Fix this textthe favourite martyr of the English Church
