Information about the place
Caves Bridge No 157 is a major waterways place on the Oxford Canal (Southern Section - Main Line) between Concorde Avenue Bridge No 165 (3 miles and 1 furlong and 3 locks to the south) and Cropredy Wharf Bridge No 153 (Cropredy) (1 mile and 3 furlongs and 1 lock to the north).
 
 
The nearest place in the direction of Concorde Avenue Bridge No 165 is Little Bourton Bridge No 158 (Little Bourton, 1/2 mile west of here across the railway crossing.); 3¾ furlongs away.
 
The nearest place in the direction of Cropredy Wharf Bridge No 153 is Slat Mill Lock No 26; 1¾ furlongs away.

There is no access to the towpath here.

Mooring here is tolerable (it's just about possible if really necessary). The tow path is narrow and the bank has stone or filled bag facing. There is little piling to clip to so pins are nearly always required. If you like remote, this is it except for the rumble of goods trains through the night from the parallel railway!.

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