[edit] General Info

Cherwell Heights is a housing estate in Banbury, which was built during the late 1960s and early 1970s. It is a relatively large estate in Banbury and has many open areas and parks. The A4260 (Oxford Road) runs adjacent to the estate

Recently it has come into the spotlight, along with Bodicote, because of the recently approved plan to build a new estate of 1070 houses on the land between Cherwell Heights and Bodicote, thus almost merging the village with the town.
