Parish Open Space

The Parish Council owns and maintains areas of green open space for the benefit of the village.

Bartholomew Close

Entrance is via the access to the left of the gate at the bottom of Bartholomew Close. The gate is locked to prevent vehicular access spoiling your enjoyment of the area. Although there is no parking available, the Parish Council car park is only a short distance away on foot.


There are several picnic benches and a litter bin which makes this site ideal for a summer family picnic or somewhere to have a quiet read. A dog bin is provided on the site.


The wooden art structure at Bartholomew Close Park is finished. Cotswold artist, Natasha Houseago, has been working on site since July and enjoyed having many visitors and discussing her work. The funds used for the art trail were given by s106 monies, designated for art, to Ducklington Parish council. The whole trail will be launched in spring/early summer 2026, so watch this space.

Peel Close / Lovell Close

The Parish Council also owns and maintains the land between Peel Close and Lovell close as attractive green and open space.

Whilst not a large space it is an attractive tree lined area between these two streets.

As this area is close to housing we would ask that you respect the neighbours when enjoying this space. There are no litter bins at this location so please take your litter home with you – the nearest litter bin is in the Parish Council car park or the village green, both a very short distance away.
