More about Binsey Oxfordshire
Binsey is a small village just to the West of Oxford,
in modern times encompassed within the ring-road. It is
the other side of the Thames from Port Meadow, and a
couple of miles south-west from the remains of Godstow
priory.
Its most famous feature is the church of St Margaret,
set at some distance north from the surviving houses.
Its fame lies mostly in that just outside its West end
and belltower, stands the model for Lewis Carroll's
'Treacle Well' from Alice in Wonderland; this is a holy
well dedicated to St Frideswide, patron of Oxford. She
had fled to Binsey in a bid to escape marriage to a king
of Mercia, whose pursuit of her was halted when he was
struck blind at the gates of Oxford. Frideswide's
prayers brought forth a healing spring, whose waters
cured his blindness, and the spring was walled into a
shallow well which became something of a focus for
pilgrimage, the mediaeval sense of the word 'Treacle'
meaning 'healing unguent'.
The reason for the apparent separation of church and
village, is revealed best from the air; crop-marks show
the floor-plans of houses that lay along the straight
road that runs between them, suggesting a much larger
village during the Mediaeval period, or possibly one
that has 'migrated' south.
The village and its associated farmland belonged to St
Frideswide's Priory during the 14th and 15th centuries,
until the Priory's dissolution and (apparently)
incorporation into Christ Church College of Oxford
University.
The village also contains a large public house, ' The
Perch'.
