More information on Hinksey Pools

This pool is a brightly lit family facility which has recently been upgraded. The water temperature is adjusted frequently to reflect the climate, so it's never too cold for comfort. There are guards in attendance, hot and cold food and drink can be bought on the premises, and free parasols are provided. Sun loungers and deck chairs are also available for hire. The pool is popular at peak times, but is big enough to cope with a lot of swimmers.

Traveler Photos of Oxford

Love that ochre shade Somewhere in Oxford. Liverpool, this church was bombed in WW2. St. Helen's Passage, where we walked through during the Ghost Tour (which was fascinating and very well guided I might add) where a lot of bloodshed occurred and where apparently there are lots of reports of a feeling of unease or anxiousness, and the smell of horses still residing from that day!
