From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Great Coxwell is a village and civil parish 2 miles (3 km) southwest of Faringdon in the Vale of White Horse, England. It was in Berkshire until the 1974 boundary changes transferred it to Oxfordshire.

The Domesday Book of 1086 records the toponym as Cocheswelle. 13th- and 14th-century records call it Great Cokewell or Cokeswell. In 15th-century records it is Cokeswylle or Cokyswell. The earliest known record of the modern spelling Coxwell is from the 18th century. “Great” distinguishes the place from neighbouring Little Coxwell, whose village is 3⁄4 mile (1.2 km) east of Great Coxwell. The two parishes share a common boundary.
