Car parks in Faringdon

The Council owns two car parks in Faringdon, on Southampton Street and Gloucester Street, both of which give easy access to the town centre's shops and services.

Both car parks are open from Monday to Saturday from from 8am until 6.30pm. Details of charges can be found below the map.

Buy Back in Faringdon

Twenty-five of the town’s independent traders in The Faringdon Retail Group have pooled resources to launch the new “Buy Back” parking ticket refund, whereby anyone who spends £5 or more at participating stores will have the first hour of their parking ticket refunded.  It is hoped this will encourage more visitors to the town centre shops. 

The scheme is in operation at Southampton Street Car Park and Gloucester Street.

Under BuyBack residents are required to buy a parking ticket from the machines, display it in their car window, and when they take a receipt to a participating shop they will be refunded the first hour of parking charge on purchasing £5 worth of goods.

The scheme is being paid for by the independent traders themselves who will foot the bill for all refunds claimed.  BuyBack is supported by the Council.
