is a
Constituency represented in the
House Of Commons of the
Parliament Of The United Kingdom . It elects one
Member Of Parliament (MP) by the
First Past The Post system of election.
The constituency contains the town of
Abingdon , the village of
Kidlington , and the western and northern parts of the city of
Oxford . It includes many of the colleges of the
University Of Oxford and thus contains a large student population.
Following their review of parliamentary representation in
Oxfordshire , the
Boundary Commission For England has made changes to the existing arrangement as a consequence of population changes. The electoral wards used in the creation of the modified constituency are;
- From the district of Vale Of White Horse - Abingdon Abbey and Barton, Abingdon Caldecott, Abingdon Dunmore, Abingdon Fitzharris, Abingdon Northcourt, Abingdon Ock Meadow, Abingdon Peachcroft, Appleton and Cumnor, Kennington and South Hinksey, North Hinksey and Wytham, Radley, and Sunningwell and Wootton.
- From the city of Oxford - Jericho and Osney, North, St Margaret’s, Summertown, and Wolvercote
- From the district of Cherwell - Kidlington North, Kidlington South, and Yarnton, Gosford and Water Eaton
The constituency was created in
1983 when the constituency of
Oxford was split in two.
