Turweston is a small village and civil parish in north‑west Buckinghamshire, close to the county boundary with Northamptonshire and the market town of Brackley. It sits in a predominantly agricultural landscape of arable fields and hedgerows, with medieval origins reflected in a compact settlement of farmhouses, cottages and a parish church that hint at its long rural history.
A distinctive local feature is Turweston Airfield, a former wartime site now used for general aviation and occasional events; together with nearby Silverstone and good access to the M40, this brings sporadic visitors and small‑scale business activity to an otherwise quiet community. The parish retains a small, close‑knit population and a largely farming‑based economy, with a strong local identity shaped by landscape and heritage.
