The Church of St Mary the Virgin, Iffley[2] is a church in the village of Iffley, Oxfordshire, England, now absorbed as a suburb of the city of Oxford.
The church was built c.1170–80 in the Norman style by Robert de St Remy, the lord of the manor.[3][4] The building has not been changed too much over the centuries, retaining its round-arched windows and doorways.[5] It is Grade I listed. The church includes a stained glass window by the 20th century artist John Piper.
