Church of St Mary, Bloxham, Gothic parish church in Bloxham, England.
The Church of St Mary features extensive stone sculptures, ornate capitals, and medieval wall paintings throughout its spacious interior structure.
Westminster Abbey received this church as a grant from William of Normandy in 1067, with fragments of 12th-century masonry still visible in doorways.
The church maintains its religious function through regular services, annual Christmas ceremonies, and community gatherings for the villages of Milcombe and South Newington.
The church opens its doors daily for visitors to examine the architectural elements, including the tower spire that stands as the tallest in Oxfordshire.
The church contains eight bells that form the heaviest set of change-ringing bells in the world operated from ground level.
