Hinton Waldrist is a small, quietly picturesque village in the Vale of White Horse district of Oxfordshire, England, set among the gentle chalk vales and patchwork farmland that characterise the area. The village feels rural and scenic, with lanes and footpaths that appeal to walkers and riders and easy links into the surrounding countryside, lying not far from the rolling hills of the North Wessex Downs and nearby market towns for day-to-day services.
Historically the name reflects the medieval Waldrist family who held the manor and the place retains a compact, historic core with a parish church and traditional farmhouse buildings; it was part of Berkshire until the local government reorganisation of 1974. Today Hinton Waldrist remains a small agricultural and residential community, with a social life typical of English villages - local events, a village hall or church activities and a mix of farming households and people who commute to larger towns for work.
