More about this scene

Since the 1960s this village has grown quite substantially, mainly to accommodate workers from Banbury, 3½ miles away. Built around the ironstone industry, which was mined locally, many of the buildings date from the period when that industry was at its height. One of the notices outside this small village shop, now closed, is advertising a garden fete.
