Shepherd's Green is a small, quiet hamlet and village green in the district of South Oxfordshire, within the county of Oxfordshire in England. It sits among the patchwork of arable fields, hedgerows and country lanes that characterise the area, giving it a distinctly rural, low‑density feel compared with the larger towns nearby.
Like many greens in the region, it has an agricultural heritage - historically used for grazing - and today that legacy shows in scattered cottages, converted farm buildings and working farms. There are few services on the green itself, so social and cultural life tends to link with neighbouring villages and village halls, while many residents commute to larger centres such as Oxford or work in local agriculture, walking and countryside pursuits play a big part in local life.
