The village of Dorchester on Thames lies at the confluence of the River Thame and the River Thames. With a history of settlement since the Stone Age, Dorchester has several 15th and 16th century properties including inns which date from when the village was a staging post for coaches travelling between London and Oxford. In addition to the Abbey, Dorchester provides a well renowned pre-school and primary school, a Co-operative supermarket and several well known antique shops and inns. The nearby towns of Wallingford, Abingdon and the city of Oxford provide more extensive shopping facilities and the Wittenham Clumps are excellent for walks and offer far reaching vistas stretching across the county. Culham and Didcot Parkway stations provide rail services to Reading, Oxford and London Paddington. The M40 connects to London and Banbury and the A4074 and A329 link with Reading and the M4 motorway.
