Wingrave is a small, traditionally rural village in the civil parish of Wingrave with Rowsham in Buckinghamshire, just outside the market town of Aylesbury. It sits in the gentle farmland of the Vale of Aylesbury on the fringe of the Chiltern Hills, giving a mix of open countryside and attractive period buildings clustered around a village green and historic parish church.

The community retains a strong village character with a village hall, local activities and quiet residential streets; economically it still reflects agriculture locally but increasingly serves as a home for commuters within easy reach of nearby towns and London. The combination of historic buildings, agricultural surroundings and easy access to larger centres makes it typical of many Buckinghamshire villages that balance conservation with modern living.
