Towersey
A small rural parish in the north-east corner of South Oxfordshire, very close to the county
boundary and on the edge of the Aylesbury Vale. The origins of its name can be found back as far
as the Saxon times. The village can be found in the Doomsday Book under it’s original name of
Eye. The name Towersey is actually derived from Richard de Tours. The Tours family were owners
of the land and area. Therefore, they became know as the Tours of Eye which led to usages such as Toureye, Towerseye and finally Towersey.
