Weston-on-the-Green is a small, historic village and civil parish in the district of Cherwell, in Oxfordshire, England, lying to the north of Oxford. It keeps a distinctly rural character, with a compact village core centred on a medieval parish church and a mix of older houses and farm buildings that reflect centuries of agricultural life in the area.
The village is perhaps best known locally for its grass airfield, formerly an RAF station and still used for light aviation and occasional events as RAF Weston-on-the-Green, which gives the place an unusual twist for such a quiet spot. The local economy remains rooted in farming with many residents commuting to nearby towns, and community life revolves around the village hall, the pub and traditional village fetes and activities that keep the social fabric lively.
