Kidlington
Kidlington is a sizeable village and civil parish in between the River Cherwell and the Oxford Canal. It is approximately 5 miles (8 km) north of Oxford and 7.5 miles (12 kilometres) southwest of Bicester. The settlement noted in the Domesday Book of 1086 expanded from an ancient village nearby to the church. Prior to the Enclosure acts of 1818, a large section south of the village was unenclosed common land, and the village was commonly referred to as Kidlington-on-the-Green. According to the 2011 Census, the village has a permanent resident population of 13723. This makes it a significant contender for the largest village in England. Kidlington residents have regularly withstood propositions to become a town, despite the fact that it certifies for such status against any criteria. Following a peremptory change by the Parish Council to Town status, the adjustment was voted down in a ballot of the local electorate by 98 per cent, and ultimately reversed. There are many options to take part in social, cultural and leisure activities in the town. Kidlington is home to around 50 shops, both independent and commercial chain stores, banks and building societies, a public library, a sizeable village hall and a weekly market. In addition to this, there are 7 pubs, 2 cafes, and four eateries. The public houses are concentrated along the dual carriageway that runs through the village, which feature the Highwayman Hotel, the Black Horse, the Black Bull, the Red Lion, along with the King's Arms in the Moors, and the Six Bells in Mill Street. The Squire Bassett was converted into a Nepalese eatery and renamed the Gurkha Village in 2012.
