URPoint Details
The Bampton area has been settled since Iron Age and Roman times. The earliest settlement was probably somewhat to the east of the centre of Bampton today, the triangular space known as Market Square. Bampton was an important place in the Saxon and Middle Ages.
A lovely old village, home of the famous Morris Men. There are some very interesting 17th and 18th century houses and stone cottages to be seen in the village.
