Appleton-with-Eaton is a small, mainly rural civil parish in the Vale of White Horse, Oxfordshire, England, made up of the neighbouring villages of Appleton and Eaton. Set in rolling chalk country, it retains a mix of arable farmland, hedgerows and pockets of historic settlement; the stone parish church and several listed cottages hint at a long medieval and agricultural past, while earthworks and field patterns point to earlier occupation.
The parish combines a quiet village culture - community events, a village hall and traditional pub life - with the practical realities of a commuter belt, being close to Abingdon and within easy reach of Oxford. Walkers and cyclists enjoy the surrounding countryside and proximity to the River Thames, and the local economy remains a blend of farming, small businesses and residents who work in nearby towns and cities.
