The County of Oxfordshire is bound by the River Thames to the South, the Chiltern Hills, stretching across the East, and the Cotswolds to the West and North.
Oxfordshire literally means the 'district' (or 'shire') of and around the town of Oxford and was established over a thousand years ago, in Saxon times.
