19th-century view of Castle Street in Oxford

Castle Street is a street in Oxford, England.[1] It is named after Oxford Castle which is close by to the west and is located in the St Ebbe's area of southwest central Oxford.

"Castell Streate" can be found on a map of 1578 by Ralph Agas. In 1885, Castle Terrace was built by F. J. Codd in the adjoining Paradise Street. This became Simon House, run by the Cyreneans.[1]

To the north there is a junction with New Road and Queen Street. The Westgate Shopping Centre is to east at the northern end of the street.
