Information about the place
Wolvercote Green Field Bridge No 236 is a minor waterways place on the Oxford Canal (Southern Section - Main Line) between Isis Lock Junction (2 miles and 1¼ furlongs to the southeast) and Wolvercote Junction (Junction of Duke's Cut with Oxford Canal) (6¾ furlongs and 1 lock to the northwest).
 
It is part of City of Oxford.
 
The nearest place in the direction of Isis Lock Junction is Wolvercote Railway Bridge No 236A; 2¾ furlongs away.
 
The nearest place in the direction of Wolvercote Junction is Wolvercote Footbridge; 1½ furlongs away.

There is access (via steps) to the towpath here.

Mooring here is tolerable (it's just about possible if really necessary), mooring pins are needed. Mooring is limited to 14 days. The towpath edge is appalling, so ended up requiring a gang plank to get ashore.

There is a bridge here which takes a track over the canal.
