Epwell is a village and civil parish in the north of Oxfordshire about west of Banbury. The 2011 Census recorded the parish population's as 285. Epwell's toponym is believed to be derived from the Old English ''Eoppa's Well''.
==Manor== In 1279 Robert Danvers held a fee at Epwell. Documents in the 14th through the 18th centuries often spelt the manor name as Ipswell, an Early Modern English name form that developed from Middle English in relative isolation due to phonological changes. Epwell was an exclave of the Hundred of Dorchester until the 18th century, when it was transferred to the Hundred of Banbury.
