Kangaroo Sling Meet

“It’s a breath of fresh air!”
Come and spend some time outdoors in a beautiful garden of medicinal plants and abundance of nature. Children of all ages are here spending time in the big sandpit, in the rowing boat, in the willow den and in the hexagonal wooden hut.
Bring lunch & a drink in a thermos.

How to Find Barracks Lane Community Garden

The Garden is on Barracks Lane, East Oxford, and can be accessed via Cumberland Road, off Cowley Road (and not the Holloway end of Barracks Lane). Go to the end of Cumberland Road, turn left onto Barracks Lane.

The garden is situated in the corner where the Barracks Lane road meets the Barracks Lane footpath/cycle path.
There are regular bus services to the Cowley Road from Oxford City Centre and Blackbird Leys, the nearest bus stop is Howard Street.
Parking is free on the residential roads nearby.

Buses number 1, 5, 10 from Town Centre all go along Cowley Road. Get off at Cumberland Road stop. Turn left and follow the residential road to the top. Turn left again and follow the Cycle Path. When you see bollards, turn left again down a little alleyway of invitingness.

The colourful enormous gate says Welcome. Kangaroo Playgroup is on the other side of the gate, which is kept closed to ensure a safe enclosed area for children.
