Mid Oxfordshire (UK Parliament constituency)
Parliamentary constituency in the United Kingdom 1974-1983
Mid Oxfordshire was a parliamentary constituency in Oxfordshire, returning one Member of Parliament (MP) to the House of Commons of the Parliament of the United Kingdom. Unusually, its official name - Mid-Oxon - incorporated an abbreviation (Oxon, for Oxonia) but the full form of the county name was and is normally used in referring to the constituency.
The constituency was created for the February 1974 general election from parts of the seats of Banbury and Henley, and abolished for the 1983 general election.
Throughout its existence, the seat was represented for the Conservatives by Douglas Hurd with comfortable majorities.
