Henderson/Oxford is in Oxford, North Carolina, in Vance County. The field elevation is 526.3 ft MSL. It has one runway, 06/24, which is 5,501 ft long and paved with asphalt. There is no control tower. CTAF and UNICOM are both 122.8. Raleigh Approach handles approach and departure work on 132.35 and 256.9.
The airport has one ILS approach, published for runway 06. Pattern altitude is not published, so use the standard 1,000 ft AGL for light piston traffic unless the current FAA Chart Supplement says otherwise.

Runway 24 also has a drop-off near the threshold. Trees east of the airport can hide the rotating beacon.
