The neighbourhood of Cutteslowe and Sunnymead lies on the northern fringe of Oxford in Oxfordshire, England. It is largely residential, with a mix of council and private housing, small shopping parades and good transport links via the Banbury Road and the A40; green spaces such as Cutteslowe Park and proximity to the River Cherwell give the area a suburban, family-friendly feel.
Historically the area is remembered for the Cutteslowe Walls, a 20th‑century flashpoint that highlighted class tensions, but today it is a diverse community with active local groups and regular park events. Its position close to the city centre and nearby employment hubs makes it popular with families, students and commuters, and ongoing local initiatives emphasise community cohesion and improving facilities.
