| At 440 acres, Port Meadow is the largest area of common land in Oxford. Freemen and the Commoners of Wolvercote have grazing rights that are still exercised today. Port Meadow is bordered on the western edge by the Thames and for a large part of the year parts of the Meadow are flooded, bringing flocks of migratory birds. A burial ground can be found in the centre of the meadow and for these reasons the Meadow is both a SSSI and a scheduled monument. A classic Oxford activity is to walk up the west side of the Meadow, have a pint at the [[Perch]], and then continue up north for another pint and some roasted chestnuts and mulled wine at the [[Trout Inn]] in Wolvercote. It's approximately a 50 minute stroll to the Trout from the southern edge of the Meadow. You can reach Port Meadow from Walton Well Road, Aristotle Lane and Wolvercote. At the eastern edge of Port Meadow you can access [[Burgess Field]].
