Moreton Road

Moreton Road is a residential road in the Oxford suburb of North Oxford, Oxfordshire, United Kingdom.

It lies to the north of the original North Oxford development by St John's College, Oxford but since it is south of Summertown it is often considered to be part of Central North Oxford, with high house prices.
