Woodeaton or Wood Eaton is a village and civil parish about 4 miles (6.4 km) northeast of Oxford, England.

[3] Numerous notable bronze artefacts have been discovered at and around the site[3] and are now housed in the Ashmolean Museum in Oxford.

[2] The Domesday Book records that by 1086 the Norman nobleman Roger d'Ivry held the manor of Eaton.

[9] The manor remained with the family until 1912 when Captain Mark Weyland sold the house and part of the land.

[2] Since 1950 Woodeaton Manor House has been an Oxfordshire County Council school for children with special educational needs.

[10] Woodeaton has had a parish church since the early or middle part of the 11th century,[11] when a Saxon timber one was built.

[15] An Early English Gothic doorway in the south wall of the chancel is of a style that suggests a date of 1200–30.

[16] Later in the Middle Ages, the east and south walls of the chancel were rebuilt and were given late Perpendicular Gothic windows.

[20] The tower has a turret clock similar to that at St Nicholas' Church, Islip, except that the iron bars of its frame are nutted together rather than wedged.

[21] In the 14th century a large image of Saint Christopher was painted on the north wall inside the nave.

[22] Restoration work in 2010 exposed remnants of an early 14th-century crucifixion scene above the rood beam over the chancel arch.

[6] The wooden screen in the chancel arch and some of the nave seating was added late in the 15th or early in the 16th century.

James Sadler, the first English balloonist, landed near the village after his first ascent from Christ Church Meadow in Oxford on 4 October 1784.
