The electoral ward of Rose Hill & Iffley sits on the south‑east edge of Oxford in Oxfordshire, a short distance from the city centre. It mixes the denser Victorian and council‑built terraces of Rose Hill, historically linked to nearby industry, with the quieter, more picturesque riverside settlement of Iffley.
Iffley is noted for its 12th‑century church of St Mary the Virgin, the nearby River Thames (the Isis locally), Iffley Lock and the flower‑rich Iffley Meadows, while Rose Hill has a compact local parade, community centres and ongoing regeneration initiatives. The ward is socially mixed-long‑standing families alongside newer residents-with practical bus links into central Oxford and to employment areas such as Cowley.
