Evenley

Evenley is a village and civil parish just over 1 mile (1.6 km) south of Brackley in West Northamptonshire, England.

[2] The parish is bounded by the River Great Ouse to the northeast, one of its tributaries to the northwest and on other sides by field boundaries.

[3] The A43 road passes through the western part of the parish and links the village with junction 10 of the M40 motorway 5 miles (8 km) to the south-west.

[citation needed] Evenley had a parish church by 1535, when the Augustinian Huntingdon Priory held the rectory.

[8] Monuments salvaged from the old church were re-set in the present building, including a more than life-size marble statue of the barrister and judge Sir Creswell Levinz (1627–1701).

[11] St George's parish is a member of the Benefice of Aynho and Croughton with Evenley and Farthinghoe and Hinton-in-the-Hedges with Steane.
