About Swinford

Swinford straddles the A40 west of Oxford, serving as a key waypoint between the city and the Cotswolds. The village sits in the Thames Valley where several tributaries meet the main river, creating characteristic water meadows. It's popular with commuters using the A40 corridor and visitors exploring the nearby historic sites around Eynsham and Stanton Harcourt. The village is home to the Swinford Toll Bridge, one of only two remaining privately-owned toll crossings in England.
