Goring-on-Thames village

Highlight • Trail

Goring-on-Thames is a large, unspoilt village in the Chiltern Hills Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty. It is on the Thames' eastern side, with the village of Streatley occupying the other. They are linked by the Goring and Streatley Bridge.

There is fantastic walking on the Goring Gap outcrop, with some lovely, colourful woodland trails. The Ridgeway National Trail passes through the village, whilst the Swan's Way ends here on its journey from Salcey Forest in Northamptonshire.

St Andrew's Church, Streatley

Highlight • Historical Site

The present church dates from as early as 1200s, although there was an earlier church dating as far back as circa 1080. By the early 1200s the original church was in need of renovation and was entirely rebuilt.
The current building thus falls outside the Romanesque Anglo-Saxon/Norman period of architecture and into the Gothic, the divisions of which are Early English, Decorated and Perpendicular. St Andrew's stands, therefore, as a far more elegant church than it might have been.

Built of local flint rubble covered with roughcast, it occupies a prominent position in the village. It has stone dressings and contains a chancel, nave, north and south aisles, south porch, vestry and western tower.

The church is dedicated to St Andrew, one of the twelve apostles. One reason for this choice is that it was at the instigation of St Birinus, a Benedictine monk, who had come to England by order of Pope Honorius I in the 7th century. St Birinus came from the Abbey of St Andrew in Rome and was recorded as having "built and dedicated several churches and brought many people to God."

The Leatherne Bottle

Highlight • River

This highlight is not the Beetle and Wedge. It’s the Leatherne Bottle (although that now appears to be closed down). The Beetle and Wedge is on the other side of the river in Moulsford.
