Location
The small timeless South Oxfordshire village of North Stoke occupies a tranquil setting by the River Thames, just downstream from the historic old market town of Wallingford which was granted a Charter by Henry II in 1155. Wallingford lies just to the west offering an exceptionally wide variety of shops and facilities, including a Waitrose supermarket, eateries, and cinema to name but a few.
Over the years the village has seen little intrusive development, retaining much of its original peaceful charm and benefiting greatly by being effectively a cul de sac set off the B4009 away from all through traffic. The main village street contains many period cottages and houses of differing architectural styles and character, some dating back to the 16th century, all contributing to the overall appeal and heritage of the village. The Parish Church dates back to the 13th century and boasts a Jacobean pulpit and 14th century wall paintings. The handsome Village Hall was built in 1911.
The historic Ridgeway Path runs through the centre of the village, having followed a route along the banks of the Thames from Goring continuing its journey up onto the Chilterns. The immediate local area has numerous footpaths and bridleways through the scenic surrounding countryside which is designated an “aonb”.
In addition to superb local state schools, locally the area is also extremely well served by an excellent range of private schooling, of particular note; The Oratory, Pangbourne College, Cranford House, The Manor, Moulsford Preparatory, Abingdon Boys and St Helen’s & Katharine for girls. Also Crowmarsh Primary School is close by and has consistently received high Ofsted ratings.
The peaceful nature of the village belies its close proximity to an excellent road network, linking with the M4 and M40 motorways. For rail commuters there are stations at Goring on Thames, Didcot and Cholsey, all of which provide fast and regular services to Oxford, Reading and London (Paddington).
