About

The Hagbourne, Moreton & Cholsey area lies in the flat, fertile Thames floodplain south of Wallingford. The landscape is dominated by open arable fields and the meandering course of the River Thames, which defines its western boundary. The settlements themselves are compact, with Cholsey being the largest, centred around its railway station on the main line to London. Moreton and the Hagbournes are smaller, linear villages characterised by a mix of brick and flint cottages and newer housing developments.

The area is defined by its transport links and agricultural character. The railway line and the A329 road provide major connections, while the Thames Path long-distance trail follows the riverbank. Cholsey is notably home to a large traditional railway marshalling yard, a significant local employer. The flat terrain is crisscrossed by drainage ditches and footpaths, with the prominent landmark of Cholsey Hill offering views back across the open fields towards the river and the Chilterns beyond.
