Why go

Bury Knowle brings visitors into Headington’s local history and green space. The old house forms a backdrop to lawns and paths, while the storybook sculpture and play area give families something specific to seek out. It also pairs naturally with a walk through the surrounding Headington streets.

What to look for

  • The historic Bury Knowle House frontage
  • The Story Book Tree and other park sculpture
  • The children’s play area

Useful to know

  • Enter from London Road in Headington.
  • Use the park paths for a short circuit; cycling within the park is restricted.
