Eydon is a small rural village and civil parish in West Northamptonshire, England, set in rolling farmland close to the Oxfordshire border and within easy reach of the market towns of Daventry and Banbury. It has medieval origins and an Old English name, and still shows a compact historic core of a parish church, traditional cottages and farmsteads tucked along quiet lanes.
The village is largely agricultural in character but many residents now commute to nearby towns; community life is quietly active around the village hall and occasional local events. Pleasant country footpaths, a handful of historic buildings and the unspoilt lanes give Eydon a tranquil, small‑village feel valued by walkers and those seeking rural charm.
