The City Church in Oxford, England, is where the mayor and corporation (local government officials) are expected to worship. [1] There have been three churches designated the City Church in Oxford, first established around 1122:
Carfax is the junction of St Aldate's (south), Cornmarket Street (north), Queen Street (west) and the High Street (east) in Oxford, England. It is considered to be the centre of the city.

The Carfax Tower, also known as St. Martin's Tower is a prominent landmark and provides a look-out over the town.
