The Oxford Visitors & Convention Bureau and the Smith Library of Regional History are pleased to announce the re-publication of the "Walking Tour of the Uptown Oxford Historic District."

Originally printed in 2001, the 50-page booklet has been revised to include newly discovered information about some sites and to remove descriptions of buildings that have been razed since the first edition was published. Although the Uptown Oxford Historic District includes all the properties in the High Street business district, the brochure covers only those built before World War II.

Of the 100 sites listed, many include archival photos from the Smith Library along with a paragraph explanation of the historical and architectural significance of the 19th and early 20th century buildings.

Each tour booklet includes a map and is intended to be a used as a self-guided tour

Copies of the booklet are free from the bureau at 30 W. Park Place and from the Smith Library at 15 S. College Ave.
