South Park, Public park in east Oxford, England.
South Park extends across 22.8 hectares of green space on Headington Hill, providing clear views of Oxford's historic university buildings and towers.
The Morrell family owned this land until 1932 when the Oxford Preservation Trust purchased it to maintain public access, later transferring it to Oxford city in 1951.
In 2001, the park hosted what might be Oxford's largest gathering when Radiohead performed for 40,000 people alongside Beck and other notable musicians.
Multiple entrances on Morrell Avenue, Headington Road, Cheney Lane, and Warneford Lane allow visitors to access the park, which remains open every day.
The carved stone by Eric Gill at the park's base commemorates the Oxford Preservation Trust's acquisition through the Pilgrim Trust and Randall-MacIver contributions.
