Welcome to Epwell’s Village website
Our village lies on the ironstone downs of North Oxfordshire, about seven miles to the west of Banbury, close to the county boundary with South Warwickshire and to the northern reach of the Cotswold escarpment.
The website holds lots of useful information about village events, organisations, services and Epwell’s fascinating history.
News items and events coming soon will be mentioned on this page. To suggest items contact editor@epwell.com
