New Marston Meadows is a 44.7abbr=offNaNabbr=off biological Site of Special Scientific Interest in Oxford in Oxfordshire.[1] [2]
These meadows in the floodplain of the River Cherwell are traditionally managed for hay or by grazing. Some plants are typical of those on ancient meadows, such as common meadow-rue, pepper-saxifrage, devil's-bit scabious, adder's-tongue fern, smooth brome and meadow barley. Snake's head fritillary, which is nationally scarce, is also found at the site.[3]
