Walton Manor

About

Walton Manor is a residential ward located just north of Oxford's city centre, bordered by the Oxford Canal to the west and the University of Oxford's science area to the east. Its streets are characterised by Victorian and Edwardian terraced houses, many converted into flats for the large student and academic population. The area functions primarily as a quiet neighbourhood for university staff and postgraduates.

The ward includes the green expanse of Port Meadow, a large area of common land grazed by horses and cattle, which provides open views back towards the city's spires. Local life centres on Walton Street, which offers a selection of independent shops, cafes, and the historic Jericho Tavern pub. The Oxford University Press building is a notable local landmark on its southern edge.
