Woodeaton is a small village and civil parish in South Oxfordshire, in the county of Oxfordshire, England, lying just a few miles to the east of Oxford. It occupies a quiet agricultural setting of fields and lanes, with a compact cluster of historic houses and farmsteads that make it attractive to people who work in the city but prefer a rural base.
The village has a strong sense of history: the settlement's core contains surviving medieval earthworks and the site of a moated manor, while the parish church retains medieval fabric alongside later alterations and several listed buildings survive locally. Socially and economically it is modest and largely residential today, prized for its tranquillity, access to countryside walks and wildlife, and its proximity to the River Cherwell and Oxfordshire’s amenities.
