Moulsford is a small village and civil parish in South Oxfordshire, Oxfordshire, England, sitting on the north bank of the River Thames near the Goring Gap where the river threads between the Chiltern Hills. The settlement lies close to Goring and Wallingford and the Great Western main line runs nearby; the adjacent Moulsford Railway Bridge is a local 19th‑century engineering feature from the Brunel era that adds to the village’s railway heritage.
The parish keeps a distinctly rural, historic character with a compact cluster of cottages, a parish church and the well‑known Moulsford Preparatory School housed in an attractive riverside manor. Economically it is largely residential, with many people commuting to Didcot or Oxford, while riverside walks, local community events and conservation interests in the surrounding countryside make it popular with visitors and residents seeking a peaceful Thameside setting.
