Broughton is a village and civil parish in northern Oxfordshire, England, about 2.5 miles (4.0 km) southwest of Banbury.

Broughton's Church of England Parish Church of St Mary the Virgin was built in about 1300 in a style that is transitional from Early English to Decorated Gothic.[1] The church stands in the grounds of Broughton Castle, the 14th- to 16th-century country house that is now the seat of Baron Saye and Sele of the Fiennes family.

Broughton has one public house, the Saye and Sele Arms.[2]
