{{Use dmy dates|date=July 2017}}{{Use British English|date=July 2017}}{{Coord|51.741686|-1.24555|display=title}}Aston's Eyot is a {{convert|33|acre|adj=on}} island on the east bank of the River Thames in the city of Oxford, England, southeast of Christ Church Meadow.^[1]

Eyot is another spelling of ait meaning small island. The island is roughly triangular, bounded to the northwest by the River Cherwell and to the southeast by the Shirelake Ditch.^[1] There is a mixture of habitats, part woodland, part open/scrub.

The site is leased by Oxford City Council from Christ Church. At the turn of the 19th/20th centuries it was used as a rubbish tip.^[2]
