Kidlington is a village in Cherwell district, in Oxfordshire, England. It is located between the River Cherwell and the Oxford Canal, about 12 km (7.5 mi) to the southwest of Bicester. Kidlington has a population approaching 15,000 people (2012 estimate). With its status as village rather than town, it is one of the most populous village in England as well as Europe.

Kidlington is listed in the Domesday Book of 1086, where it appeared as Chedelintone. The spelling evolved to Kedelington in the 13th century before arriving at its present form. The Church of St Mary the Virgin was built in 1220 and is today a Grade I listed heritage building.

About this website

Hello and thanks for reading this page. My name is Timothy and my hobby is in describing places so that I can share the information with the general public. My website has become the go to site for a lot of people including students, teachers, journalists, etc. whenever they seek information on places, particularly those in Malaysia and Singapore. I have been doing this since 5 January 2003, for over twenty years already. You can read about me at Discover Timothy. By now I have compiled information on thousands of places, mostly in Peninsular Malaysia and Singapore, and I continue to add more almost every day. My goal is to describe every street in every town in Malaysia and Singapore.
