Cuckoo Lane in Headington, Oxford

More detailing of the land North of Headington way this lunchtime, after filling in the maze of pedestrian access around The Croft over the middle of this week (difficult, but rewarding: high walls, trees, and sunken footpaths make my n810's GPS unhappy, so multiple passes are sometimes necessary). I now want to capture the modern extent of the ancient Cuckoo Lane running down to Marston Lane and the new Centre for Islamic Studies http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Oxford_Centre_for_Islamic_Studies >. As ever, headington.org.uk has history, photos and out of copyright (-looking) maps:
