Ducklington is a small village and civil parish in West Oxfordshire, in the county of Oxfordshire, England. It lies on the gentle countryside a few miles west of the market town of Witney and within easy commuting distance of Oxford, sitting on the edge of the Cotswold-influenced landscape of rolling farmland and stone-built cottages.
Historically rooted in agriculture, the village retains a parish church and a compact community life centred on a village hall, pub and local clubs; many residents now commute to nearby towns while a number of farms and small businesses continue to operate. Ducklington’s mix of historic buildings, accessible country walks and regular community events gives it a quietly rural character much appreciated by locals and newcomers alike.
