Castle Quay shopping Centre in the newly regenerated Oxford Canal area, blends well with the old town, while edge-of-town supermarkets and retail parks provide additional shopping opportunities.

Your place to enjoy...
Banbury is steeped in history and there is a wealth of ancient buildings and monuments to discover, such as St Mary's Church, built in the 1790s which is a Grade I listed building, and Banbury Town Hall, a gothic-style building which opened in 1854. And let's not forget the Banbury Cross, and the statue of the Lady on a White Horse dating back hundreds of years and famous for the old nursery rhyme:

"Ride a Cock Horse to Banbury Cross
To see a fine lady on a white horse
With rings on her fingers and bells on her toes
She shall have music wherever she goes".

Banbury has many parks and open spaces for walks in attractive surroundings, and recreation areas including multi-use games areas for youngsters. The canal towpath is an easy walking route, and the People's Park near the town centre is ideal for picnics.

Further afield, you can explore Blenheim Palace, the birthplace of Winston Churchill, and Broughton Castle which was featured in the film "Shakespeare in Love".

There are other historical houses and gardens to enjoy such as Farnborough Hall, surrounded by elegant lakes and landscaped gardens, and Stowe Gardens, with over forty temples and monuments.
