A short history of Bicester
Bicester grew up where two ancient routes met, with a Roman fort at Alchester nearby. The West Saxons settled at this crossing point in the 6th century and people have lived in the town since the middle of the 7th century. A minster church, St Edburg's, was probably founded around that time. The Domesday Book of 1086 records the place as Berencestra, with the manors of Bicester and Wretchwick both held by Robert D'Oyly, the builder of Oxford Castle. Gilbert Bassett founded an Augustinian priory around 1183, endowed with land across several neighbouring parishes. Bicester headed a deanery of 33 churches before the 13th century closed. Of the town's 115 listed buildings St Edburg's is Grade I while The Old Priory with its garden walls and The Old Vicarage are Grade II*. Wretchwick deserted medieval settlement is a scheduled monument.
