Established in 1876, Benfield and Loxley has a rich history rooted in Oxford, beginning with the restoration of New College Chapel. The company quickly became a trusted name, undertaking significant projects for Magdalen College School and subsequently working on numerous colleges and private schools across Oxford. A notable period saw the establishment of their own brickworks in 1900, which became the largest in the world at the time.
Over the decades, Benfield and Loxley has been involved in landmark constructions, including the original Morris Motor works and contributing to major civic buildings like the New Bodleian Library and Nuffield College, utilizing stone from their own quarries. The company transitioned to a public incorporated company in 1960, expanding its reach and building contemporary structures before returning to private ownership in 1984. Since returning to private ownership, Benfield and Loxley has refocused on its core strengths within the Oxford area, particularly serving the private education sector.
The company prides itself on maintaining long-term relationships with clients, staff, sub-contractors, and consultants, consistently delivering projects to the highest standards.
