Bicester North and the small village of Caversfield lie on the northern edge of Bicester in the Cherwell district of Oxfordshire. The area benefits from strong rail and road links - Bicester North station offers regular services into London - and is close to the internationally known designer outlet at Bicester Village, which has become a significant local employer and visitor draw.
Historically the place grew from a market town and surrounding agricultural parishes into a mix of Victorian terraces and newer housing estates, while Caversfield retains a compact village character with a parish church and rural lanes. The ward therefore blends commuter suburbia and retail activity with pockets of countryside and local heritage connected to the town’s military and farming past.
