Wood Farm Health Centre in Leiden Road reopened as Wood Farm Healthy Living Centre after a complete refurbishment, although the change of branding doesn’t seem to have reached its website yet.
The full planning application for student accommodation on the corner of Latimer Road is now on the City Council’s website (ref 15/00858/FUL).
Full marks to Leaders letting agency @LeadersOxford who took advantage of the total breakdown of civil society caused by bagmageddon by giving away reusable shopping bags carrying their logo.
