Help us write the next chapter.
You are invited to find out more about Mansfield College’s Estate Transformation Project at our public drop-in event on Thursday 5 June 2025.
Mansfield is a beautiful and inspiring place to study, work and visit, but we must look ahead and acknowledge that we have long since outgrown our current space. Our financial position means we must plan for a future that will ensure Mansfield can continue to lead the way on widening participation at Oxford.
Through the transformation of the College’s estate – primarily focused on the south side rather than the historic buildings – we aim to create inclusive and accessible community and academic spaces, provide more on-site accommodation for students, enhance our historic surroundings, and achieve our net zero carbon goal by 2050.
To bring this vision to life, we have appointed a top architectural team to develop a comprehensive plan for the estate’s transformation.
We held our first public consultation on 6 February 2025 where visitors learned more about the project’s background and gained insight into the considerations that will shape the detailed proposals moving forward. Thank you to everyone who took part and gave us feedback to help us write Mansfield’s next chapter.
The exhibition boards from the first consultation event are available to view below.

Next steps
We have carefully considered the feedback received and have continued to develop a holistic approach to our estate – one that reflects both our ambitions and the priorities of the local community.
We are excited to share our latest proposals with you, and at our next drop-in event in June, you will have the opportunity to learn more about our updated thinking and proposals, as well as share your views and ideas directly with the project team.
If you have any questions, please feel free to contact us via email on consultation@mansfieldproject.co.uk, or by calling our Freephone consultation helpline (office hours): 0800 689 5209.
