Map of the UK

Longworth is a small village and civil parish in the Vale of White Horse district of Oxfordshire, England, set in gently rolling countryside on the edge of the Berkshire Downs. The settlement retains a rural character of farms, hedgerows and older stone and thatch houses, with public footpaths and lanes that make it popular with walkers enjoying the surrounding landscape.

Historically the parish was part of Berkshire until the 1974 boundary changes, and it still has a quiet, village-centred community life around its historic parish church and village hall. The local economy remains largely agricultural, though many residents now commute to nearby market towns and Oxford, and the area is noted for its picturesque charm and heritage rather than heavy industry or large-scale development.
