Grafton Oxfordshire Map

About Grafton

Grafton rests quietly in the West Oxfordshire landscape, a collection of dwellings that seem to have settled into their surrounds with a natural grace. It lies 5.4 km north-north-west of Faringdon (from Faringdon: bearing 340°T, OS grid SP 269 006), and is situated south-west of Clanfield village. The broad sweep of fields, often a tender green under the soft, diffused light of the South East, provides a gentle embrace to Grafton. Its lanes, less travelled than those of busier settlements, possess a hushed quality, where the rustle of leaves might be the loudest sound for a considerable stretch. The agricultural heritage of the region is still palpable here, in the sturdy farmhouses and the enduring patterns of the hedgerows that carve across the gentle undulations of the land. Grafton, in its understated way, offers a glimpse into a more elemental existence, where the turning of the seasons dictates the rhythm of life.
