I hear there is a trad session in the (I think ) Port Mahon Pub - I'm sure if you contact the people at "The Music Room" in Oxford they will be able to help you.

You could have a look at The South Midlands Session Guide It is well out of date but the contacts should be useful.

Details of Oxford Folk Club at the Port Mahon here

As a general rule, to find out anything about the English folk scene start here

Cheers for that Peter and Silverfish. I was actually looking for more of an informal an especially irish/scottish session. I had heard a while ago that there was one at either the Lamb and Flag or the Eagle and Child, but never followed it up...

Try the Half Moon (Wed & Sun eve) Session St Clements
Also Killingworth castle Wooton near Woodstock out of town for a range of instrumental though mainly Irish.
Pick up a copy of Shire Folk at TI office or Port Mahon on Friday Though many of the sessions listed don't happen.

As far as I know the South Midlands Session Guide is way out of date and the link is broken right now. I took it off my site because of that. cresby.com lists some and there are plenty of contact numbers. The Half Moon is a good bet. There are sessionist up near Wootton but last I heard Killingworth Castle was a Fri bar music and once a month they had folk. The telephone number I had failed last time I checked. Shirefolk is a good place to look. Bob Lloyd is probably still the contact there.

Are you sure that cresby.com is the right link? Took me to what seemed like a family website with a guest book.

Best ever was at the Fir Tree Tavern - when Phil and Mandy were the tenants. Sadly gone now - so not much help to you really!

Agree about the Fir Tree when Phil and Mandy were the tenants, but Half Moon probably the best bet now.... (Ian Giles, Jon Boden, Ian Woods, etc)
