Deddington

Deddington ward encompasses the historic market town of Deddington and its surrounding rural settlements in north Oxfordshire. The area is characterised by limestone buildings and a traditional market square that remains a focal point for community life. Farming continues to play a significant role in the local landscape, with mixed agricultural land defining the ward's boundaries. The ward includes the villages of Clifton and Hempton, which contribute to its overall population and rural character.

The town's layout is anchored by its medieval street plan, leading to the large church of St. Peter and St. Paul. A notable local feature is the substantial 13th-century castle earthworks, known as Deddington Castle, situated near the town centre. Weekly markets and annual events are held on the square, maintaining a long-established commercial and social function. The surrounding countryside offers public footpaths along the River Cherwell and through the neighbouring fields.
