Kidlington, Rural village in Cherwell, England
Located between the River Cherwell and Oxford Canal, Kidlington extends over green spaces with residential areas and a central shopping district on High Street.
The settlement, mentioned as Chedelintone in the Domesday Book of 1086, developed around St Mary the Virgin Church, which dates back to 1220.
The Kidlington Concert Brass, established in 1892, maintains a tradition of musical excellence through performances and national competitions throughout the year.
The village contains numerous shops, banks, restaurants, and services, positioned strategically along the A4260 road, five miles north of Oxford city center.
From 1931 to 1937, Kidlington hosted Oxford Zoo, commemorated by an elephant sculpture installed in 2018 at a local roundabout.
