Short Stay Accommodation The Plain
Travelling down High Street and over Magdalen Bridge you reach The Plain, a roundabout with a Victorian fountain from which roads lead to St. Clements, Headington, Cowley and Iffley. Apartments, bars and restaurants are being developed amongst the traditional properties.
The Plain received its name after St Clement's Church was demolished in 1828 and a new church was built near the other end of St Clement's, at the southern end of Marston Road. This left a wide open space where the roundabout is now located. The Plain includes a small building facing Magdalen Bridge named Victoria Fountain, protected by a roof supported on stone columns with a small clock tower on top. The fountain building was designed by E. P. Warren and built in 1899
This area is very accessible to the city centre on foot or to the many hospitals located in Headington and also to Brookes University and the Oxford Business Park in Cowley and has excellent bus links to other parts of the city.
