After a report, published in 2010 by Oxford City Council, identified “loss of traditional stone boundary walls” as a particular vulnerability in Headington Quarry Conservation Area, Oxfordshire County Council has decided to take down a stone boundary wall and replace it with a metal railing.

This afternoon! Fine gardens, fine weather, fine teas!

There is a General Meeting of the Friends of Old Headington on Weds 11 February at 8pm in the Old Headington Village Hall, Dunstan Road. We are discussing the proposed allocation of part of the Conservation Area, Ruskin Field, for development in the Oxford Local Plan to 2045. All are welcome.

“You know it’s wrong so please move along!” Children and parents at Windmill Primary School and Headington Nursery School staged a protest this morning against inconsiderate and dangerous driving outside school. They cite the volume of cars coming off the ring road and cutting through these streets.

This proposal has significant consequences for Old Headington and for the Northway estate. All welcome on Wednesday 11th February 👇

❗ ANNOUNCEMENT ❗ It's not currently possibly to safely or easily walk the full length of the Lye Valley after some mindless vandal(s) set fire to part of the boardwalk last night. The City Council are aware of the situation, and are visiting today. @headingtonnews.bsky.social

Thank you to all who came to support our Open Gardens event on a hot sunny afternoon yesterday. Income from this event helps the Friends in its support of the Conservation Area, as we have done for over 65 years now. We also support other local charities with aims and objectives similar to our own.

A modern block of flats in Headington may have to be demolished after a planning inspector concluded the original building plans were misleading. The plans mis-stated the height of the music shop next door, such that the final building was built “significantly taller than planned”.
