About

Kidlington East ward sits on the eastern side of the larger Kidlington parish, bordered by the Oxford Canal to the west and open countryside to the east. The area is primarily residential, characterised by a mix of post-war housing estates and some newer developments. It contains local amenities including shops, schools, and community facilities centred along the main roads, serving the immediate neighbourhood.

The ward is defined by its proximity to both the canal and the expansive fields leading toward Thrupp and Hampton Poyle. A notable local feature is the presence of the historic Oxford Canal, which provides a green corridor for walking and narrowboat moorings. The area functions largely as a commuter settlement for Oxford, with direct road and bus links, while maintaining its own distinct residential character within Cherwell district.
