Venues
Horspath [Google Maps] - OX33 1RT, but the postcode is over a wide area, so best to put Horspath Cricket Club into your SatNav, and it'll take you there. Note also that venue is the Village Hall, near the cricket pitch, not the Community Hub (the old church) in the centre of Horspath.
There is plenty of parking right in front of the village hall.
BusHorspath is served by the bus service no.46, which operates from Oxford to Great Milton, via Cowley, Horspath and Wheatley.
CycleThere is a cycle route from the ring road near the BMW plant to Horspath. There is no dedicated cycle parking at the community centre, but there are fences that a bike can be locked to.
Risinghurst [Google Maps] - OX3 8HA
There is a small amount of parking in front of the community centre. For those with easy-to-carry instruments, there is on-road parking available, often some on the main road (Kiln Lane) itself, but there is usually more available down the side-road (Richards Way).
BusRisinghurst is now served by the new bus service no.14, which operates up to mid-evening. Other than that, the nearest stops are on the A40, near Collinwood Road.
CycleThere is cycle parking (Sheffield hoops) at the community centre.
St Andrew's Church, Linton Road [Google Maps] - OX2 6UG
There is residential parking in the roads around the church. Do look at the parking restrictions as they vary a lot from bay to bay, however on a Saturday, you should be able to find 2 hours free parking up to 4pm, after which the restrictions lift.
BusThere are bus stops on the Banbury Rd, with frequent buses.
CycleThere are several hoops for cycle parking at the front of the church.
