An area located south of Kidlington roundabout has been earmarked for the stadium

A poll is being held in an Oxfordshire village over plans for Oxford United's new football stadium.

Residents are being asked if Kidlington Parish Council should support the idea.

The club has proposed an 18,000-capacity stadium on a site south of the village, known locally as the Triangle.

Voting takes place between 16:00 and 21:00 BST. The result, which will not be legally binding, is expected to be announced soon after.

Oxfordshire County Council, which owns the site, will decide if the plan moves forward later in the year.

The club's lease on its current home, the Kassam Stadium, runs out in 2026.
