Banbury is a medium-sized town in north Oxfordshire that is probably best known for its cross, which features in the famous nursery rhyme "ride a cock horse to Banbury cross".  The current cross has been in existence since 1858, though there have been other crosses in Banbury prior to the current one.

Banbury isn't just about crosses though.  It is a busy town with plenty of shops.
