A Grade II listed church https://historicengland.org.uk/listing/the-list/list-entry/1047202 which was rebuilt in 1780 and enlarged in 1798. Major enlargements and improvements to the building took place in 1819 (at which point the pillars and architrave on the front of the church were added) and again in 1982 which included the creation of a suite of rooms extending over four floors and the creation of a "coffee shop" in what was formerly the Royal Mint. In 2008 the forecourt of the church was opened to form part of the new Bonn Square development project, placing the church at the heart of one of Oxford's public squares.
