CowleyRoad.org is like a Wikipedia for the Cowley Road. Every public or commercial building from the Plain to Magdalen Road has its own page. Anyone is free to contribute facts or images. The ultimate aim is to chronicle the architectural and social history of every building, back to the 1850s when Cowley Road was first created from open fields.

Every public or commercial building from the Plain to Magdalen Road has its own page. Anyone is free to contribute facts or images. We are building an open archive of facts and photos celebrating Cowley Road's social and architectural life, with all content freely available to the community.


The project will be officially launched during Cowley Road Carnival 2017, followed by a series of public workshops. The workshops will collect local people's knowledge, and get people set up to add their memories and research to the website.
