Cuddesden, a village of Oxfordshire, 6 miles ESE. of Oxford. Here is the palace of the bishops of Oxford, rebuilt by Bishop Fell in 1679, with a chapel added in 1846 by Bishop Wilberforce, to whom the adjoining theological college (1854) also owes its existence. The church is a fine old cruciform building.
