Bloxham is a sizeable historic village in the Cherwell district of Oxfordshire, England, set on the edge of rolling agricultural countryside a short distance from Banbury. It keeps a strong sense of place with a traditional high street, timber‑framed houses and a conservation heart, with public footpaths and green spaces linking it to the surrounding farmland.
The village’s history is visible in its medieval parish church, All Saints Church, and in the pattern of streets and old buildings.
