Retirement Property & Retirement Homes in Culworth

Banbury is mentioned in Domesday as Banesberie with four mills and belonged to the Bishop of Lincoln. For much of the late Middle Ages it was a fierce bastion of Puritanism and nothing remains of the old cross mentioned in the nursery rhyme which was destroyed in 1602. The present Banbury Cross is a 19th century replica and Elizabeth I, Lady Godiva and a member of the Fiennes family from nearby Broughton Castle have been variously identified as the ‘fine lady‘ in the ‘ride‘ of the nursery rhyme. The Oxford to Banbury Canal was built in the late 18th century and the M40 in the late twentieth.
