Glympton, a quiet hamlet, rests within the West Oxfordshire district. It lies 5.2 km north-north-west of Woodstock (from Woodstock: bearing 339°T, OS grid SP 426 216), and is situated north-west of Wootton village. The land around Glympton unfurls in gentle slopes, often catching the soft, diffused light characteristic of the South East region, a light that can lend an almost ethereal quality to the surrounding fields and ancient hedgerows. The parish church of St. Mary, with its weathered stone and quiet dignity, stands as a silent sentinel, its history whispering through the quiet air. The very earth here seems to hold a deep, unhurried patience, a quality that permeates the small cluster of dwellings and the surrounding farmland. Glympton's character is one of understated grace, a place where the passage of seasons is marked by the subtle shifts in the landscape rather than grand pronouncements.
