Please note:
(1) The AGM documents at the back of the booklet posted to all members with Bulletin which refer to 'From London and the East; From the South; From the North and from the West' all have the right directions except that each states arrival is at New College instead of Mansfield College. They all correctly say Mansfield Road but mention New College. The relevant detailed Map however is correct in indicating exactly where Mansfield College is.
The attachment below has the corrected directions in it.
(2) There is no parking available at Mansfield College. There is not much parking in central Oxford. Car drivers are advised to use the park and ride scheme. The website is here: http://www.oxfordshire.gov.uk/
Walking from the rail station is approx one mile, and walking from the park and ride stops and the bus station approx three-quarters of a mile.
Disable drivers and visitors should contact Steve Oram for advice.
