Tadmarton is a village and civil parish about 4 miles (6.4 km) west of Banbury, Oxfordshire, the residents' population of which increased by 26% between 2001 and 2011.
The Church of England parish church of Saint Nicholas is early Norman. The building was enlarged and the bell tower added in the 13th century.[2] The church is a Grade I listed building.[3]
The tower has a ring of six bells.[4] Four were originally cast early in the 17th century, but two of these were re-cast in 1923 and 1939. A fifth bell was added in 1761 and the treble was added in 1947.[2]
The manor house has a 15th-century barn, believed to have been built for Abingdon Abbey.[2]
Tadmarton has one public house, the Lampet Arms.[5]
