Banbury's name is derived from the Old English words "banna" meaning "a band or a group" and "burh," meaning "fortified town." It likely refers to a settlement that was established near a river crossing or a fort. Historical records suggest that it has been inhabited since at least the 9th century. The town grew in prominence during the medieval period, particularly known for its market and trade.
