- Dalton Barracks, Abingdon
- Farmoor
- Fyfield
- Grandpont, Oxford
- Grimsbury, Banbury

- Stanmore Crescent, Carterton
- Stanton St John
- Upton
- West End, Witney
- Wolvercote, Godstow Road
- Wootton, near Woodstock
- Wootton Road, Abingdon
- Wytham.
The five West Oxfordshire branches proposed for "replacement solutions" are Chadlington, Enstone, Great Rollright, Great Tew, and Tackley.
A six-week consultation period on the proposals starts today and people have until Monday, March 17, to comment.
