Welcome to Yelford

Yelford is a small village located in the county of Oxfordshire, England. It is situated on the banks of the River Thames and is surrounded by beautiful countryside. The village has a rich history dating back to the 11th century when it was mentioned in the Domesday Book. Yelford was once a thriving agricultural community, but today it is a peaceful and picturesque village that attracts visitors from all over the world.

One of the most notable features of Yelford is its beautiful church, St. Nicholas. The church dates back to the 12th century and is a fine example of Norman architecture. It has a beautiful stained glass window that was designed by the famous artist, William Morris. The church is still in use today and is a popular destination for tourists and locals alike.
