The original church building stood on The Plain, surrounded by the village, until 1829 when it was demolished. A new church was built on a new site during 1827–28 near the other end of St Clement’s, at the southern end of Marston Road.
About this church
The architect Daniel Robertson designed the new building in a Norman style: a very early example of the revival of this style of 11th and early 12th century architecture. It was built by John Hudson of Oxford and cost £6,032 19s. 5d, supported by a gift of land from Sir Joseph Lock and public subscriptions principally collected by John Henry Newman. The site of the original church is an open space that is now a roundabout called The Plain.
