Map of the UK

Stanton Harcourt is a small village and civil parish in the rolling countryside of West Oxfordshire, Oxfordshire, a few miles west of Oxford and close to the market town of Eynsham. It sits among farmland, lanes and water meadows, giving it a distinctly rural character despite good road links to the city.

Historically the parish was shaped by the long-standing influence of the Harcourt family and the centre is known for its medieval church with notable family monuments and surviving manor earthworks. Agriculture remains important locally, though many residents now commute to Oxford, and village life is centred on the hall, local gatherings and a modest range of community activities that reflect its historic and social roots.
