Court Place Gardens was acquired by the University of Oxford in 1966. It is a mosaic of lowland mixed deciduous woodland with elements of calcareous alkaline fen, wet woodland, and old punting channels. Scattered ornamental, non-native species can still be found from when the site was the manor house's ornamental garden.
We are rennovating the area for the local people to enjoy. There is a permissive footpath through the woodland, the main entrance to the gardens is via Rivermead Nature Park.
The woodland at Court Place Gardens is less than a century old. Some of the larger trees were planted for landscape reasons within the garden of the Mansion House.
Park Farm is a SSSI Water Meadow owned by the University of Oxford. We are recording the habitat management to improve biodiversity and maintain historical watermeadows.
