This Closed Pubs page has a long list of Oxford pubs that have closed, with information and pictures. The site also covers the whole of England.
This is a draft page. The plan is to document here the pubs that have been truly lost since 1984, those that are currently closed/under serious threat, and those we believe are likely to re-open.
