In 1818, St. Martin's Church was rebuilt complete with tower. However towards the end of the 19th century, mounting traffic problems necessitated road widening. The Churh apart from its tower was demolished in 1896. The tower is all that remains today. On the east facade, two 'Quarter boys' who hit the bells at every quarter of the hour adorn the church clock.
Its located at the junction or St.Aldates/ corn market Street and High street / Qeeens Street, oxford. It's managed by City Site seeing on behalf of oxford city council.
You can climb 99 steps to the top of the tower to get a birds eye view of oxford's dreaming spires.
