Ickford is a small village in Buckinghamshire, England, sitting beside the River Thame close to the Oxfordshire border and the market town of Thame. Its position on the river and near the rolling foothills of the Chilterns gives it a distinctly rural character while keeping it within commuting distance of both Oxford and London.
The village has a clearly historic core with older stone and timber-framed houses, a mix of working farmland and small local enterprises, and the usual village focal points of church, pub and hall that sustain an active community life. Visitors and residents appreciate the quiet lanes, surviving historic buildings and conservation-minded feel, even as many people now travel outwards for work.
