Adderbury

The civil parish of Adderbury sits in the district of Cherwell in rural Oxfordshire, about three miles south of Banbury in England. The village nestles among farmland and small woodlands and retains a compact historic core of stone and thatched cottages, a prominent medieval parish church and a number of estate-era features and ponds that give it a distinctly picturesque character.

Adderbury has a strong community life and is well known locally for its traditional Morris-dancing side, often called Adderbury Morris, alongside a busy village hall, primary school and local clubs. The economy combines agriculture and small local businesses with many residents commuting to Banbury or Oxford, and the parish’s long history and conservation-minded character make it a popular place for visitors and new residents alike.
