Holywell Street
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Holywell Street is a street in central Oxford, England. It runs east-west with Broad Street to the west and Longwall Street to the east. About half way along, Mansfield Road adjoins to the north.
New College dominates the south side of the street. The King's Arms, a public house that is very popular with Oxford University students, is located at the western end. On the north side is the Holywell Music Room, an historic chamber music venue built in 1742. Opposite is a small cul-de-sac, Bath Place. This leads via a small winding footpath to the historic Turf Tavern public house close to the old city wall. The wall is still extant in places and follows the course of Holywell Street to the south, partly through New College.
