Map of the UK

The ward centred on Milton-under-Wychwood sits in the rolling countryside of West Oxfordshire, on the fringes of the ancient Royal Forest of Wychwood and the Cotswolds. It combines limestone cottages, a compact village core and surrounding farmland, with the River Evenlode and a network of lanes linking it to Shipton-under-Wychwood and the market town of Chipping Norton.

Historically agricultural, the area retains a clutch of listed buildings and community institutions - a parish church, village school, local pubs and active societies - and still stages traditional fetes and village events. Today the local economy is a mix of farming, small enterprises and commuters travelling to Oxford and beyond, giving the ward a strong village identity with an interest in conservation and local heritage.
