A Roman road abounds the Parish on the west and above it is the ancient Ridgeway Path, which traces its timeless way across the Downs to Streatley where it crosses the Thames and onwards into the Chilterns. The village has an historically interesting array of rambling farmhouses, old cottages and barns and some fine houses, notably West Ilsley House, formerly the home of the Morland Brewing family, which dates from the Queen Anne period. Close to the village is Hodcot House which is now a famous horseracing establishment formerly owned by the Queen. The village, historically linked to farming and agriculture, still continues this rural way of life today remaining largely unspoilt, albeit it has become more residential benefiting from the excellent road communications. There is plenty going on for all age groups. The cricket and tennis clubs both have regular activities throughout the summer months for the younger members of the community. Not to be missed is the annual village fete and lively pre-fete dance. The village website, k provides further details and is well worth a visit. There is also a thriving public house overlooking the cricket field and pavilion which has become well known for its food. For rail commuters there are fast regular mainline services up to London (Paddington) from nearby Didcot. The village also benefits from having excellent education close at hand including the renowned ‘Downs’ secondary school at Compton and St Helen’s & St Katharine’s for Girls and Abingdon Boys Schools. More state and private schools can be found within easy access including the popular East Ilsley primary school.
