The Museum of Oxford celebrates it's 40th anniversary this year and to mark the occasion it would like to display 40 objects, stories, photos etc. that relate to Oxford and the last 40 years. If you have something you'd like to share, do come along and show us!

Punting is a fantastic way to explore the River Thames and view Oxford from a different vantage point. It’s also great for providing entertainment to the locals who, from the sidelines, quietly watch a slightly inebriated visitor attempt it for the first time!

The term ‘punting’ comes from the latin term ‘ponto’, meaning a flat-bottomed boat. Usually, punting takes place upon narrow boats which are square at both ends and propelled by a long pole (think Venetian gondolas, though technically those are propelled with an oar, not a pole!) and often chauffeured. We’ve compiled 10 of the best reasons you should give this quintessentially English activity a try…

Salters Steamers operate an Oxford to Abingdon scheduled boat service 7 days a week between 23rd May and 13th September (weather permitting). Starting opposite Christchurch Meadows and finishing in the market town of Abingdon this is one of the most picturesque journeys in Oxfordshire.

Salters' Steamers operate the most popular scheduled boat service along the river Thames, serving Oxford, Abingdon, Reading, Henley, Marlow and Windsor. They also run shorter round trips from most of these towns and cities, which makes for a special half day out in some of Oxfordshire's most beautiful countryside.

Oxford City has 2 main areas where regular markets are held. Firstly there is the permanent market in the very centre of town - Oxford Covered Market and secondly nearby Gloucester Green hosts 3 days of differently themed markets each week. Additionally there are several localised out-of-town weekly farmers' markets.

This year the Museum of Oxford celebrates its 40 years in the town hall.
To mark this exciting period we are launching a 40:40 project - forty things for forty years. We want the people of Oxford and all partners and businesses to help us find 40 things that you think are exclusively Oxford. Anything that inspires, fascinates, provokes or intrigues you about Oxford. It could be pictures, objects, stories, places, interesting facts, films almost anything goes!
