The word 'Carfax' is derived from the Latin word for 'crossroads'. Built in the fourteenth century, Carfax Tower was originally the tower of the twelfth century City Church of St Martin. The church itself was demolished in 1900. The tower is all that remains and sports one of several cockerel-shaped weathervanes in Oxford. The weathervane dates from 1820.
