Upper Tadmarton, Banbury, OX15 5SL

Upper Tadmarton lies within the town of Banbury, itself the administrative centre of the Cherwell district in northern Oxfordshire. Cherwell is a non‑metropolitan district established in 1974, taking its name from the River Cherwell which drains south through the region and eventually joins the River Thames at Oxford. The district includes towns such as Banbury and Bicester, and the village of Kidlington is noted as a contender for the largest village in England. The locality of Upper Tadmarton, identified by the postcode district OX 15, is therefore part of this broader district, which is characterised by its rural setting and proximity to the river that gives the area its name. Residents of Upper Tadmarton are within the administrative boundaries of Cherwell and benefit from the district’s local governance and community structure.
