Appleton-with-Eaton is a civil parish located in the county of Berkshire, England. It is situated approximately 4 miles northwest of the town of Abingdon and about 10 miles south of Oxford. The parish is made up of two villages, Appleton and Eaton, which are connected by a road that runs through the picturesque countryside.
The village of Appleton is known for its historical significance, with evidence of human settlement dating back to the Iron Age. It has a charming and traditional English village atmosphere, with cobblestone streets, thatched-roof cottages, and a beautiful 12th-century church, St. Laurence.

Eaton, on the other hand, is a smaller village with a more rural feel. It is surrounded by open farmland and offers a tranquil and peaceful setting. The village is home to a few rustic cottages and a primary school, providing a close-knit community environment.
