The best view of Radcliffe Square: the dome of the Radcliffe Camera at your feet, All Souls and the city's spires all around. The tower dates from 1280 and is climbed by a medieval spiral staircase of 127 steps, narrow and worn, which passes the old library and the bell chamber.
It costs £7; the church itself is free. Monday to Saturday it opens from 9:30 to 18:00 and on Sunday from 12:00; the last climb is at 16:30. Only from age 8. Downstairs, in the old Congregation House, is the Vaults & Garden café.
