The Pavilion, completed in 1996 and maintained to a high standard is one of North Oxfordshire’s leading sports and meetings venues. Constructed in local honey coloured Hornton stone featuring exposed roof timbers and a cathedral ceiling, the Pavilion is a change from the bland, modern hotels and tired function halls.

Approached by a wide tree lined drive the Pavilion has plenty of parking spaces for private cars and coaches adjacent to the ground and pavilion.

The Pavilion also provides a sporting and recreational facility and venue for the surrounding community to enjoy including Banbury Cricket Club who become our residents during the summer months.

The facilities not only play host to Banbury fixtures but also that of Minor Counties Cricket, C&G Trophy matches and County benefit matches throughout the summer season, not to mention a host of other sporting and leisure activities.
