Wargrave is a picturesque riverside village in the borough of Wokingham, Berkshire, in England, sitting on the banks of the River Thames. Its attractive conservation area and mix of timber-framed cottages and Victorian houses give it a distinctly historical feel, while riverside walks, boating and local rowing clubs make the river an everyday feature. The village is served by Wargrave railway station on the Henley branch line, with easy connections via Twyford to London and nearby Henley-on-Thames.
Locally there’s a strong community life - pubs, a village hall, a cricket club and regular fetes and regatta-related events help knit the place together. Historically a small agricultural and riverside crossing, today Wargrave balances its heritage with a commuter population and modest local shops and services, making it a quietly desirable spot on the Thames.
