Oxford
Oxford is a town in Oxford County, settled in 1794 and incorporated on February 27, 1829 from a portion of Hebron. It then annexed land from Otisfield (1830) and Paris (1838). Maine Routes 26 and 121 serve the community.
Though famous for the auto racing at Oxford Plains Speedway just off Route 26, the nearby Androscoggin River passes several sizable ponds and Thompson Lake abuts the main village.
The Oxford Congregational Church was established fourteen years before statehood in 1806 and is listed on the National Register of Historic Places.
