Moulsford is a small village and civil parish in South Oxfordshire, Oxfordshire, England, sitting on the north bank of the River Thames. Its riverside position, a short distance upstream from Wallingford and close to Didcot, gives it a picturesque, rural feel that appeals to walkers and those enjoying boating or rowing on the Thames.

The village is perhaps best known for the nearby Moulsford Railway Bridge on the Great Western Main Line, an example of 19th‑century railway engineering associated with Isambard Kingdom Brunel, and for a cluster of historic houses and listed buildings that reflect a long local history. Today Moulsford is largely residential with agricultural roots, a small local community life and convenient access to larger centres such as Reading, Oxford and London via nearby roads and rail connections.
