Welcome to Oxfordshire Only

Oxfordshire is a southern midland county, bounded on the north by Northamptonshire and Warwickshire, Buckinghamshire on the east, Berkshire and the Thames on the south, to the west by Gloucestershire.

Traditionally part of the kingdom of Mercia, there are still remains from this bygone era. During the Civil Wars Oxford was the Royalists capital, making Oxfordshire the scene of some important events during the reign of King John.

Oxford itself is synonymous with education, with its world-class Oxford University and the more modern Oxford Brookes University.
