Kingston Lisle is a small village and civil parish in the Vale of White Horse district of Oxfordshire, England. It sits on the lower slopes of the Berkshire Downs within the North Wessex Downs Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty, giving it a quietly rural feel framed by chalk downland and ancient trackways such as the Ridgeway.
Historically part of Berkshire until the 1974 boundary changes, the village clusters around a historic parish church and the former country estate of Kingston Lisle Park. The local economy remains largely agricultural, with many residents commuting to nearby market towns like Wantage or to Didcot and Oxford. The surrounding landscape is rich in prehistoric interest - notably close to the Uffington White Horse and long barrows - so the parish attracts walkers and history enthusiasts while retaining a small‑community social life.
