High Street Recreation Ground
The High Street Recreation Ground is centrally located in Botley and provides valuable leisure and recreational amenities for residents of Botley and the surrounding area. The original park opened as a public recreation ground in 1887 and in the 1970’s the site was extended to its current size.
The site contains facilities for both formal and informal recreation and contact with nature. Visitor facilities include meeting rooms, public toilets, changing rooms, football pitches, cricket table, Astro-turf sports pitch for football, basketball court, car park, play area, teen shelter, and many smaller facilities.
The Parish Council has a continuing programme of improvements to meet changing public needs and expectations while retaining the atmosphere of a traditional village recreation ground.
