'Woodstock' was a parliamentary constituency in the United Kingdom. It comprised the town of Woodstock in the county of Oxfordshire and the surrounding countryside and villages, and elected two Members of Parliament from its creation in 1571 until 1832. From 1832 until its abolition in 1918, the seat elected only one member.
In 1885, parts of the Oxfordshire constituency were merged into the seat. Upon Woodstock's abolition in 1918, its territory was merged with that of Banbury.
