Addington is a

unitary authority area

First recorded as Edintone in the Domesday Book of 1086, its name means Eadda's Estate. Nearby Adstock is named after the same person. The manor at that time was in the possession of Odo, Bishop of Bayeux.

A notable building in the village is the Mansion House, which is a 19th-century building on the site of the much older manor. The former manor house was used twice during the English Civil War as the national headquarters of the Parliamentarian forces.

During the

President of Czechoslovakia, Edvard Beneš, lived at The Abbey in nearby Aston Abbotts

The parish church is dedicated to

St. Mary the Virgin. The church has three bells (the oldest dating as far back as 1666) hung for English change ringing

and one sanctus bell hung for chiming.

Possibly in November 1890, a temperature of -21.1 °C (-5.8 °F) was recorded. However, the temperature is of dubious authenticity and if it is correct, it would be the lowest temperature in November in England.[2]
