The St. Ebbes area of Oxford bore the worst of Victorian industrialisation and the enormous gas-works that lined both sides of the Thames lay just behind the pub. The area was redeveloped in the 60&#8217;s and 70&#8217;s, and the enormous Westgate shopping centre and its much loathed multi-story carpark virtually cut this area off from the nearby city centre. Now the Westgate has been redeveloped again, this time in a much more inclusive way to the neighbouring streets and the Jolly Farmers finds itself brought into the fold.<\/p>\n<p>\n<a href=\"https:\/\/www.flickr.com\/photos\/163363024@N04\/51877537434\/\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/live.staticflickr.com\/65535\/51877537434_05374fd4b3_n.jpg\" alt=\"Very Jolly Farmers indeed, in Paradise, Oxford.\" width=\"320\" height=\"240\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Very Jolly Farmers indeed, in Paradise, Oxford.
