A community centre is to be sold to pay for a purpose-built replacement.
Oxford city councillors approved plans to sell the existing West Oxford Community Centre site, a former school in Binsey Lane, to housing developers.
The land will be put up for sale next year, and the proceeds used to pay for a new centre off Botley Road.
Council surveyor Paul Sawyer said the existing building was almost 100 years old and no longer economic to run.
The replacement centre will include a new health centre and sports changing rooms.
