Oxford Rewley Road railway station used to be located here, originally built in 1851.
The Cistercian house Rewley Abbey, founded in 1280, was located here on the banks of a branch of the River Thames.
Virtually all the original buildings have disappeared, but there is still a 15th-century doorway in a wall on the west side of the Oxford Canal, within a housing development.
[3] Beaver House, on the corner of Rewley Road and Hythe Bridge Street, was erected in 1971–72, designed by the Oxford Architects Partnership.
