South Weston is now a village in Lewknor civil parish, about 4.5 miles (7 km) south of Thame in Oxfordshire. There are about 19 households in the parish.
South Weston is recorded in the Domesday Book of 1086 and the Hundred Rolls of 1279.[1] Both then and later in the Middle Ages, the parish's farming interests overlapped with those of neighbouring Wheatfield.
South Weston was a separate parish until 1954 when it was abolished and the area absorbed into Lewknor civil parish.
