Garsington is a village in Oxfordshire, some 5 miles south east of Oxford. It is a village of hills and narrow roads. The ground rises from 200 feet at the foot of the hill to 431 feet at the highest point of the ridge. We have magnificent views in all directions, the Chilterns to the east, Oxford to the west and the Berkshire Downs with Wittenham Clumps to the south.
The village is home to over 2,000 people, and has a local shop and newsagent. It has a pub, car repair centre, hairdressers and a garden centre. The pub, The Three Horseshoes serves food daily. There is also a local Church of England primary school that performs well in SATs. We have a fine Memorial Playing Field with a Sports and Social Club, and a recently renovated village hall, both available for functions.
Our South Oxfordshire district councillor is Elizabeth Gillespie and on Oxfordshire County Council our interests are represented by Lorraine Lindsey-Gayle. Our Member of Parliament is John Howells, successor to Boris Johnson, who moved on to become mayor of London, and is now also a member of parliament for Uxbridge and south Ruislip.
