Ruscote

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Ruscote is an estate and ward in the North of Banbury, Oxfordshire. It is a fairly recent estate which was expanded after the London overspill. It has a school and many other local amenities including 'The Musketeer' Pub. The estate is serviced by the B8 bus which is operated by Stagecoach.

[edit] Housing

Ruscote is home to many cul-de-sac's and many of the houses in the estate are semi-detached with front entrances facing a pathway and the rear entrance facing a road although this is not true for all houses in the estate.
