Overthorpe is a small parish of around 235 people (including Overthorpe village itself, and Blacklock's Hill) and sits on the edge of the Cherwell Valley overlooking Banbury.

The village consists of around 60 properties and is approached by single track country lanes flanked by tree lined hedgerows.

The beautiful countryside has been designated as the Aynho, Cherwell Valley and Eydon Special Landscape Area and the village was designated a conservation area in 1978. Within the central core of the village almost all of the traditional properties are listed.
