Crowmarsh Gifford is a compact riverside village on the south bank of the River Thames, sitting opposite Wallingford in the South Oxfordshire district of Oxfordshire, England. Its setting is characteristically Thames-side, with floodplain meadows and riverside paths - including stretches of the Thames Path - and good views towards the town and the site of Wallingford Castle, which underline the area’s historic feel.
Though it retains a distinctly rural and historic character, Crowmarsh Gifford functions today as a small local centre with a village hall, pubs and a scattering of shops and farms, and it attracts both long-standing residents and commuters who work in Oxford or Reading. The community is active with local events and outdoor leisure centred on walking, boating and the river, while its proximity to a well-known market town gives easy access to museums and other cultural amenities.
