Iffley Oxfordshire Map

About Iffley

Iffley breathes a quiet dignity along the Thames's gentle flow. It lies 2.8 km south-south-east of Oxford (from Oxford: bearing 148°T, OS grid SP 528 038), and is situated north-north-east of Kennington village. The ancient parish church, St. Mary the Virgin, stands as a venerable sentinel, its Norman stonework absorbing the pale English light, a silent witness to centuries of lives unfolding. Beyond its ecclesiastical heart, Iffley's lanes meander, bordered by gardens where roses often spill over weathered brick walls, their fragrance a sweet, ephemeral rumour on the breeze. The river itself, a shimmering ribbon, dictates a certain languid pace, its surface catching the fleeting colours of the sky, a constant, unobtrusive presence. Even the air here seems to carry a faint, earthy resonance, a whisper of the fields that once defined its edges.
