Grafton and Radcot sit in the rolling, riverside countryside of West Oxfordshire in rural Oxfordshire, England, straddling meadows and floodplain along the River Thames. The area is dominated by its scenic riverside features - most famously Radcot Bridge - and a scattering of historic buildings and old farmsteads that reflect a long agricultural tradition.
Despite a very small, dispersed population the parish has a distinct local character: a quiet, tight‑knit rural community supported by farming, small‑scale tourism (walkers, anglers and boaters) and a handful of holiday lets and cottages. Interest for visitors and historians centres on the medieval bridge, riverside locks and weirs, and the peaceful Thames footpaths that make the place popular for day trips from nearby towns.
