Welcome to South Hinksey

South Hinksey is a small village located in the county of Oxfordshire, England. It is situated on the southern outskirts of the city of Oxford and is bordered by the River Thames to the east. The village has a population of around 500 people and is known for its picturesque countryside and historic buildings.

One of the most notable landmarks in South Hinksey is the 12th-century St. Lawrence Church. The church is built in the Norman style and features a beautiful stained glass window that dates back to the 14th century. The church is still in use today and is a popular destination for visitors to the village.

South Hinksey is also home to a number of walking and cycling trails that offer stunning views of the surrounding countryside. The Thames Path, which runs along the river, is a popular route for walkers and cyclists alike. The village is also located close to the Oxfordshire Way, a long-distance footpath that runs for 66 miles through the county.
