The Cherwell was situated on Water Eaton Road.  This pub closed in 1999.

Review from tantallon.org.uk:

Brakspear Special GBP 2.00 Bass GBP 2.00 Guinness GBP 2.20 Dry Blackthorn Cider GBP 2.10  It gives the very strong impression of being a Visitor's Centre or a gift shop, or part of a well-to-do French motorway service station and local craft museum. From the outside it looks like a detached part of an industrial estate, probably where they print things. The garden is a wooden platform overlooking a side ditch of the Cherwell. The beer though is very fine, especially the Brakspear Special. (Fieldwork: 1997-12-13)
