Mixbury is a small village and civil parish in the district of Cherwell, in the county of Oxfordshire, England. It sits in a gently rolling, mainly agricultural landscape close to the county boundary with Buckinghamshire, with hedged fields, quiet lanes and open views that make it popular for walking and enjoying the countryside.
Historically a medieval settlement, the village retains a compact core of older stone buildings and a parish church alongside a scattering of listed farmhouses; farming has long shaped the local economy though today many residents commute to larger towns and cities. Community life is small-scale but active, centred on village events and the village hall, and the area is valued for its rural character and sense of local continuity.
