Kingham is a compact village and civil parish in West Oxfordshire, Oxfordshire, set in the shallow Evenlode valley on the edge of the Cotswolds. It is notable for its honey‑coloured Cotswold stone cottages, a small village green and a conservation feel that reflects its long rural history.

The parish has a mixed local economy of farming, small businesses and tourism - helped by the nearby Daylesford estate and farm shop - and good rail links via a station on the Cotswold Line that make it popular with commuters. Historic buildings, a parish church and institutions such as Kingham Hill School contribute to a strong local identity and an active community life in England.
