St. Mary the Virgin, Witney

The Parish Church of St. Mary's was founded in 1243 and the Bishop of Winchester had his Palace nearby. It was this fact and the affluence of the wool merchants in the middle ages which resulted in the very large building. The dominant spire may be seen for miles around.
