Stonesfield is a village and civil parish in England, situated about 5 miles (8 km) north of Witney in Oxfordshire and about 10 miles (17 km) north‑west of Oxford. The village lies on the crest of an escarpment, with land rising gently to the north and north‑east before descending to the River Glyme at Glympton and Wootton, about 3 miles (5 km) to the north‑east. South of the village, below the escarpment, the River Evenlode touches the southern edge of the parish. At the centre of Stonesfield stands the 13th‑century church of St James the Great, alongside a Methodist chapel, Stonesfield Methodist Church, slightly further west. The village is renowned for Stonesfield slate, a form of Cotswold stone mined particularly as a roofing stone and a rich source of fossils. The architecture in Stonesfield features many old Cotswold stone properties roofed with locally mined slate, along with some late 20th‑century buildings and several properties under construction. The 2011 Census recorded the parish’s population as 1,527.
