Outings are usually guided walks within public open space with, in a few cases, access into a church or other public building, and this element may have to be omitted if access is not available at the time. The number of places for each outing is limited but we will keep a reserve list in case of cancellations.
These excursions are only for OAHS members but if you would like to join OAHS, please see our
Joining Details Page
All excursions are free of charge to members; refreshments, if offered, will be paid for by the member usually on the day. Each member must make a separate booking as we have a limited number of places for each excursion.
Friends/partners/spouses who are not OAHS members may only attend the excursions if
there are spaces at the time of the booking closing. Members will always be
given priority. If a member would like to bring a non-member, please give the friend's name but use the member's email address so we can allocate the booking correctly.

A late afternoon tour of the Jericho area of Oxford with our President, Geoffrey Tyack. Home to the Oxford University Press, Worcester College, St Paul's Church and the unusual Italianate Church of St Barnabas, Jericho nearly met the same fate as St Ebbes, which was demolished in the 1970s and 1980s. However, it was saved and is now a lively and vibrant suburb with delightful mixed architecture, independent shops, pubs, restaurants and cafes. We will end the walk with a drink in one of the many pubs (members will need to pay for their own drinks).
