  • Cornmarket Street (often called just Cornmarket by Oxonians) is a major shopping street and pedestrian precinct in Oxford, England that leads north from Carfax Tower towards St Giles'. Located there is a variety of shops and businesses, including: * Austin Reed Boots Boswells of Oxford Burger King The Clarendon Centre KFC McDonald's Pret A Manger Starbucks WHSmith HMV To the east is the small Golden Cross arcade of small jewellery and craft shops in a historic courtyard, leading to the Covered Market. To the west is the indoor Clarendon Shopping Centre that connects in an L-shape to Queen Street. Cornmarket was pedestrianised in 1999. In 2002, it was voted Britain's second worst street in a poll of listeners to the Today programme. The rating was due largely to the first attempt to repave the street in 2001. This attempt was a failure as the granite sets laid extensively cracked and the contractor went into liquidation. In 2003, it was repaved yet again and new benches installed, amidst reports of budgetary problems.
