OSS November 2016 (Abingdon South)

The third event of the Street-O season will see us return to Abingdon. Though to a different area from the first event. This time we are in the South of Abigndon. The event will be planned by John Owens.

Event centre
The event centre will be the White Horse pub (189 Ock Street, OX14 5DW). It is a 10 minute walk from the town centre for those going by bus, otherwise there is parking available on site.

Google map location. The post code points directly at the ‘Salami Fishbar’ on Ock Street, The White Horse is on the corner of Ock Street and Spring Road.

The X3 and X13 bus routes from Oxford travel to Abigndon and may get you close to the event centre.

See About Street-O for a more detailed description.

Terrain

Largely quiet tarmac roads and paths and possibly some park area.
