Newbottle is a civil parish and largely deserted village in West Northamptonshire, about 4 miles (6.4 km) west of the market town of Brackley. It is close to the Oxfordshire county boundary and about 4.5 miles (7.2 km) south-east of the town of Banbury.
The village's name means 'new building'.[2]
A stream that is a tributary of the River Cherwell forms the parish boundary to the north-west. The remainder of the parish boundary mostly follows field boundaries.
The parish includes the larger village of Charlton, about 0.5 miles (800 m) south-east of Newbottle. The 2001 census recorded a parish population of 438, most of whom live in Charlton.[1] increasing to a joint population of 528 at the 2011 census,[3]
