Lord's from an Oxford address

Lord's is in St John's Wood, north west London. People in Oxford use it for Test matches, one day internationals, county cricket and the domestic finals the ground hosts. This page does not list the season. The date that matters is the one printed on your ticket.

Spires Taxis is a family run private hire operator licensed by Oxford City Council. We are not part of MCC and we are not the ground's own transport. You book the whole vehicle from your pickup, not a seat on a shared coach.

If the day also includes The Oval, book that as its own journey. Kennington is on the other side of London, and the two grounds are not one round trip unless you ask us to quote it that way.

One way, or a return after the close of play

A one way suits a match where you are staying in London, or someone else is bringing you home. A return is the request we see most often. Tell us the pickup time in Oxford and the time you expect to be ready to leave the ground.

The return collection is agreed when we quote. We do not leave the car at Lord's through the day unless that waiting is written into the quote you accept. A request on this form is not a confirmed booking.

Arriving in St John's Wood

The streets around Lord's are residential, and a match day changes which of them can be used. We agree a drop off that the roads allow, rather than naming a gate or a car park. We also do not publish a journey time. The roads that afternoon decide it.

Other Oxfordshire pickups can be quoted. They are not a second published fare. Vehicle types are on our vehicles, and the full event list is on event transfers.

Vehicles

Cricket groups often travel with coats and a bag each. Say how many people are coming so we quote a Standard Car or an 8 Seater with enough room.

Standard Car

Quote on request

Up to 4 passengers. The fare is for the whole car.

8 Seater

Quote on request

Up to 8 passengers. One collection for the group, not a seat each.

Questions

Do you publish an Oxford to Lord's fare?

No. A Standard Car and an 8 Seater are both quote on request. We confirm the fare for your date and addresses before you travel.

Can the return be after the match?

Yes. Send the time you expect to be collected. The meeting point near the ground is agreed with the quote, not at the roadside afterwards.

Will you list the next Test at Lord's?

No. Send the date on your ticket. We do not keep a fixture list on this page.

Are you the official taxi for Lord's?

No. Spires Taxis is an Oxford private hire operator. We are not affiliated with MCC or the ground.

Request a quote

A phone number or an email is enough. Landlines are fine.
