Cowley originated from the former villages of Cowley, Temple Cowley and Cowley St John (Also occasionally referred to as 'Church Cowley'). Cowley was a manor from Mediaeval times, and a 16th century manor house stood on Oxford Road near the corner with Hollow Way. The house became part of a military training college which was built on its grounds in the 19th century. In 1864, the Wycombe Railway between High Wycombe and Oxford was built through Cowley, but at this time the village was so small that the railway company did not provide it with a station.

Cowley is now the base for BMW one of the largest industrial employers in Oxfordshire as well as other businesses such as Blackwell Publishing and A. C. Nielsen located in the Garsington Road industrial estates.
