The Oxford Canal and Cherwell River are popular and busy, particularly during the summer, with ramblers, dog-walkers, swimmers, anglers and narrow-boaters (on the canal).

Walk down beside the canal bridge on the side without housing, and a leisurely stroll along the canal will bring you to Somerton Deep Lock. A pleasant summer hour can be whiled away here watching the narrow-boats go through the lock, if not assisting with the gates.
