Marsh Baldon is a small village and civil parish in South Oxfordshire, Oxfordshire, England, sitting roughly six miles southeast of Oxford. Set among rolling farmland and chalk downland, it forms part of the cluster of Baldons and owes its name to the seasonally marshy ground in the valley; the local economy is largely rural with many residents commuting into Oxford for work.

The village retains a quiet, community-orientated feel with shared amenities and events for locals and close ties with neighbouring Toot Baldon. Visitors and walkers are drawn by the country lanes and public footpaths that thread the Oxfordshire countryside, while a small historic core and parish life give the place a strong sense of continuity and local identity.
