Local Walks

During the summer months, we organise a series of historical walks in the town.  These focus on several aspects of the town's history, including pubs, King's End, The Priory, Market End & Garth Park. 

Walks take place on a Sunday afternoon or weekday evening for approximately 2 hours: there is a small charge to cover costs. 

A programme of village walks has also been developed to take place in 2010.

Look out for details in the local press or on the 'latest news'/'forthcoming events' pages of this website. 

A popular 'Bicester Ghost & Foul Deeds' walk around the town was initiated in November 2009 and will be repeated at various times in the future. The evening walk aims to reveal the darker side of the town's past and takes about an hour and a half to complete. Details of these walks will appear in the local press and on this website in advance of them taking place.

Cherwell District Council have produced a series of leaflets which highlight local history walks. To access the following walks, click on the link provided.
