LOCATION
In the panoramic Thames Valley between Reading and Oxford on the
Berkshire Oxfordshire borders lies the picturesque village of
Goring on Thames nestling on the bank of the river opposite the
village of Streatley.? Situated at a historic crossing point of the
Thames known as the Goring Gap where the ancient Ridgeway Path
comes down from the Berkshire Downlands to meet the river then
continues up onto the Chilterns and thence along the Icknield Way
to East Anglia.
The surrounding countryside is a designated A.O.N.B. and the
centres of both Goring and Streatley are now Conservation Areas
thus preserving the many notable period properties? some of which
date from the 15th and 16th Centuries reflecting a rich
architectural heritage.
Goring became increasingly prosperous following the arrival of
Brunel s railway and there are many examples of imposing Victorian
and Edwardian houses.
Today Goring is a thriving community well serviced by a good
range of shops and amenities including a Bank, health centre,
dentist, library, traditional inns, restaurants, boutique Hotel,
riverside Caf , Village Hall from where many activities are run,
and an excellent Primary School with a wide range of both State and
Private Schools available in the local area.
Most importantly, the village has a mainline station with fast
services up to London Paddington which service will be greatly
improved with the arrival of the Cross rail in the near future.
Road links are also excellent to major surrounding towns and for
the M4 and M40 motorway networks.
