The Ben Jonson, one of two public houses in Weston-on-the-Green. The other is The Chequers.

The Ben Jonson seems to have been the centre of activities at the annual Village Feast in September, 1879. As the Bicester Advertiser, the local newspaper, put it, a number of amusements of the itinerant kind arrived at Weston either before or after St Giles's Fair in Oxford.

In addition to this celebration, there was the Weston-on-the-Green Club Feast which took place in early summer. It seems to have been a savings club affiliated to the church and at the feast there was a service with a sermon and a sit-down dinner.
