The Church has a history dating back to the 11th century, with significant structural changes throughout the centuries. While the Domesday Book doesn't explicitly mention a church, evidence suggests Norman stonework and possible Saxon artifacts exist within the current structure. Evidence points to a possible Saxon presence, with Norman stonework in the chancel and artifacts of Saxon origin. The nave and chancel were added in the 12th century. The late 14th-century tower intrudes into the early 14th-century nave, reducing it from four bays to three and a half.

St Peter & St Paul's Church dates from the 12th century and is grade 1 listed. It's a serving Church of England church in the Diocese of Southwell and Nottingham.

Oxtons a small village, the church is probably the biggest building there is. There is a pup where people were grouping in the evening as I rode past.

The earliest church on the site is believed to have been founded in 627 by Paulinus, the first Archbishop of York, when he visited the area while baptising believers in the River Trent. The legend is commemorated in the Minster's baptistry window. In 956 King Eadwig gave land in Southwell to Oskytel, Archbishop of York, on which a minster church was established. The Domesday Book of 1086 recorded the Southwell manor in great detail. The Norman reconstruction of the church began in 1108, probably as a rebuilding of the Anglo-Saxon church, starting at the east end so that the high altar could be used as soon as possible and the Saxon building was dismantled as work progressed. Many stones from this earlier Anglo-Saxon church were reused in the construction. The church was originally attached to the Archbishop of York's Palace which stood next door and is now ruined.

Features now restored in the middle of the wood, including small gap-jumps with chicken line, flowing great (April 2022).

Unfortunately the Forestry Commission have been into Watchwood and removed all the man-made features (jumps) from the downhill runs. However the trails are still rideable & fun, plenty of berms still in place. (July 2021)

Lovely location on the Trent. Lots of easy, flat, traffic-free roads around here. Regularly use this as a lunch stop on rides in the southern half of the Vale of Belvoir. There is an easy 30 mile loop to Newark and back, going through quiet lanes up one side of the Trent and back down the other. I have used the riverside Unicorn pub as an overnight base for cycle-touring in this area.

Very nice village next to the Trent. Easily accessed by the cycle way. Suitable for all riders.
