WHEREABOUTS OF NOA
NOA (North Oxford Association)
Diamond Place, Summertown, Oxford, OX2 7DP
The refurbished NOA building adjoins the Ferry Swimming Pool and Sports Centre. The new entrance is on the North side of the hexagonal NOA building.
NOA is near the junction of Banbury Road with Marston Ferry Road. There are two car parks. You get to one from the Banbury Road (turn into Diamond Place); the other from the Marston Ferry Road (turn into Ferry Pool Road). Bring 70p to pay for parking in the evening (and memorize your vehicle registration number!).
Buses from Oxford City Centre (Magdelen Street): look for any bus going up Banbury Road towards Kidlington. Ask to get off at Summertown. The bus stop is on Banbury Road just North of Oakthorpe Road (see map below).
Directions from London by car: From London, you will approach Oxford on the A40. At the Headington junction (traffic lights - new layout!), continue on the A40 towards Cheltenham. At the next roundabout (after 2 miles) turn left following signs to Summertown and City Centre. Go through Summertown (shops to left and right) to first major road junction with traffic lights. Turn left onto Marston Ferry Road, following signs to Marston and the John Radcliffe Hospital. After 100 yards, turn left into Ferry Pool Road (signs to Ferry Sports Centre). Park in the car park at the end of the road (will cost 70p - and be prepared to tell the ticket machine your car registration number). The NOA Community Centre is in the building adjacent to the car park - entrance is on the far (north) side of the building. The south side of the building is the Ferry Sports Centre.
