Cadmore End or Cadmore is a village on the borders of Oxfordshire and Buckinghamshire. It has formed part of the civil parish of Lane End since the 1980s.

The village lies in two ancient parishes: a detached part of the parish of Lewknor in Oxfordshire (part of the township of Lewknor Uphill consisting of three detached parts),[1] and a manor in the parish of Fingest in Buckinghamshire.[2] In 1852 it became the separate ecclesiastical parish of Cadmore End.

The parish church of St Mary le Moor in the Oxfordshire part of the village was built in 1851, and is a Grade-II listed building.[3] It replaced the mediæval chapel with the same dedication at Ackhampstead.
