Middleton Cheney is a large village and civil parish in West Northamptonshire, sitting close to the county boundary with Oxfordshire and within easy reach of Banbury. It has a clearly defined historic core of stone and ironstone houses, a medieval parish church and a conservation area, set in gently rolling Northamptonshire countryside with pleasant views across the surrounding farmland and river valleys.
The village retains a lively community life with a primary school, village hall, pubs and sports clubs, and stages regular local events and fêtes. Historically agricultural, its economy now mixes farming with a significant number of commuters and small local businesses, and the parish’s many listed buildings and long history give it a strong sense of place while remaining well connected to nearby towns for work and services.
