A spokesperson for Thames Valley Police confirmed that the heavy police presence was relating to the execution of a drugs warrant at an address in Mill Street where the force remained until about 9am.
The two men were arrested on suspicion of being concerned in the supply of drugs.
They remain in police custody at this time.
The arrests are not connected with police raids at homes across Oxfordshire in the hunt for money laundering criminals and tax avoiders, which took place yesterday.
