Black Bourton Oxfordshire Map

About Black Bourton

Black Bourton, a hamlet of quietude, lies cradled by the gentle sweep of the Oxfordshire landscape. It lies 2.9 km south of Carterton (from Carterton: bearing 174°T, OS grid SP 283 039), and is situated east-south-east of Alvescot village. The ancient stones of St. Mary's Church, its spire a slender finger pointing towards the heavens, stand as a silent sentinel over the village green, where the late afternoon sun often casts a warm, honeyed glow upon the weathered stone and verdant grass. The surrounding fields, a patchwork of emerald and gold under the vast English sky, speak of generations of cultivation, their contours shaped by the steady hand of agricultural tradition. The air here carries the faint, earthy perfume of damp soil and distant hay, a scent that evokes the enduring spirit of rural England.
