Welcome to the Trap Grounds
Town Green & Local Wildlife Site

Here you can discover what makes this wild green space in suburban north Oxford so special, and why we campaigned all the way to the House of Lords to register it as a Town Green. Click on the ‘Friends’ page to find out how to support our work – and have some fun in the process.

The site lies between the canal and the railway line, immediately south of the canal bridge in Frenchay Road, off Woodstock Road
(see street map below or click here).

The nearest postcode is OX2 6TF.What3Words for the entrance on the canal towpath: /// bills.candy.pine

                       Some of the small paths are a bit rough, but Frog Lane and the boardwalk are suitable for wheelchairs and pushchairs.
