Fenny Compton is a village and parish in Warwickshire, England, eight miles north of Banbury.

[1] Its name comes from the Anglo-Saxon Fennig Cumbtūn meaning "marshy farmstead in a valley".

In 1498, Sir William Cope, who served as Cofferer of the Household of Henry VII from 1494 to 1505 (in the absence at that time of a Treasurer of the Household he carried out the duties of that office as well), was granted the Lordships of Wormleighton and Fenny Compton, part of the lands of Simon de Montford who had been attainted in 1495.

The Parish church of St Peter and St. Clare was built in the 13th century and is a Grade II* listed building.

[2] Fenny Compton had two railway stations, Fenny Compton on the Great Western Railway route from Oxford to Birmingham Snow Hill, and Fenny Compton West on the Stratford-upon-Avon and Midland Junction Railway route from Bicester North to Broom.
