Chadlington Road is a road in North Oxford, England.[1]

At the northern end is Linton Road, close to the front entrance of Wolfson College, a graduate college of the University of Oxford. Many of the houses on the east side adjoin and are used by the college. At the southern end, the road continues as Bardwell Road by the Dragon School. Here a small lane leads east down to the Cherwell Boathouse (formerly "Tims's") on the River Cherwell, where punts can be hired and a restaurant is now located. Parallel to the west is Charlbury Road.

History

Houses in the road were first leased between 1910 and 1917.[1] Most of the houses were designed by the architect N. W. Harrison. No. 11 was designed with half-timbering and stone-battered buttresses by Frank Mountain.[2]
