About Broughton

Broughton, a quiet hamlet in Oxfordshire, breathes the ancient air of the Cherwell district. It lies 4.0 km west-south-west of Banbury (from Banbury: bearing 237°T, OS grid SP 424 384), and is situated south-south-east of North Newington village. The gentle slope of the land here, where the soil often holds the rich, deep hue of ripe plums after a spring rain, hints at its agricultural past. Broughton’s modest cluster of stone cottages, their roofs a warm, weathered grey, seem to have grown organically from the earth, reflecting the enduring spirit of its people. A subtle luminescence often bathes the surrounding fields in the late afternoon, turning the ordinary into something touched by a quiet magic. The nearby River Cherwell, a ribbon of silver threading through the landscape, has long been a silent witness to the slow, unfolding story of Broughton.
