Banbury – market town charm, modern connections
Providing clear, reliable RICS surveys and valuations across Banbury and the surrounding areas.
Historic, thriving, and well connected
Set on the River Cherwell, Banbury is a vibrant market town with a rich history and a strong sense of community. Its character is reflected in the mix of charming period cottages, Victorian terraces, and modern developments that sit alongside its bustling High Street and canal-side walks. We particularly value the way Banbury’s heritage blends seamlessly with its contemporary growth.
With excellent transport links, highly regarded schools, and a wide choice of property, Banbury has become a popular place to live for families, commuters, and professionals alike. Its location provides easy access to both Oxford and Birmingham, while still retaining the warmth and character of a traditional market town.
The surrounding villages – from the picturesque Cropredy to the historic Bloxham – add to the area’s appeal, offering rural charm, welcoming communities, and beautiful countryside on the doorstep.

“Very professional, great communication with a personal service - we were very pleased with Richard Russell Surveyors. We opted for the full building survey - this was very thorough and identified issues with the property we were going to purchase that we had not spotted. Whilst we did not go ahead with the house purchase due to the level of work needed to it to make it into a rental property - the survey and advice given was money well spent. The option to have a pre and post survey chat was most welcome and an added bonus. Thank you Richard. We are still looking for a property to buy and when we find the right house we will be using Richard Russell Surveyors again. We would recommend.”

“I would highly recommend Richard for anyone looking for a high quality building survey. I recently procured his services for a level 3 survey and was very pleased with the end product. The report is incredibly detailed, more so than others I have seen, with clear pictures and suggestions of remedial work that may be required. The after survey service has been exceptional; he took the time to explain all details of the report and address all of my questions. For anyone looking for a knowledgeable building surveyor with great customer service and detailed well written reports, give Richard a call.”
