This magnificent old cathedral has a 6 o'clock service on Sunday featuring their choir and organist. The service is about 50 minutes and the choir sings for about half of the time. You need to get there early because there are more visitors than seats...More

Whilst Christ Church Meadows and the buidlings are magnificent and well worth the visit, beware the admission ticket and what is included. Normal ticket prices are GBP 8 per adult - we went on Friday 30 June 2017 and paid GBP 7.50. I wasn't aware...More

As far as I know, only members of the college can eat in the hall. It is not open to visitors for meals; only for touring when it is not being used for member meals.
