Wheatley is a large village of about 3500 people six miles south east of Oxford, near Shotover. Wheatley grew substantially in the 20th century, and is fortunate to have retained its shops in the village centre. It also offers a post office, many other services and a health centre. There are a number of pre-school groups, a nursery school, a primary school, and a school for pupils with learning disabilities, while the comprehensive school on an exceptionally scenic site and part of Brookes University Campus are both in neighbouring Holton. There is an excellent bus service to Aylesbury, Cowley, Oxford and Thame. The 280 bus service connects with both Haddenham and Oxford stations.
