East Hagbourne is a compact village and civil parish in South Oxfordshire, Oxfordshire, England, set along the small chalk stream of Hagbourne Brook a short distance south of Didcot. The surrounding gently rolling farmland and remnants of traditional orchards sit within easy reach of the Thames valley and local walking routes, giving the area a pleasantly rural feel despite good transport links.
There is a clearly defined historic core with a medieval parish church and several listed buildings, yet the village today combines that heritage with a largely commuter population working in nearby towns and rail or science hubs. A strong local community life - centred on the village hall, school, pub and annual events such as the summer fete - helps retain a distinct social identity amid steady modern development.
