Small & Charming Ickford
Situated just north of the River Thame, along the border of Buckinghamshire and Oxfordshire, Ickford boasts a seventeenth-century bridge that serves as a recognized historical landmark connecting the two counties.
An annual traditional tug-of-war takes place across the river during the summer, fostering a friendly competition between Ickford residents and those from the neighboring village of Tiddington, promoting community unity. The bridge stands as one of Ickford's historical ties, dating back to a period predating the Domesday Book.
Other historical features include the thatched seventeenth-century Rising Sun pub and the parish church of St. Nicholas, a focal point of village life since the twelfth century. In addition to these historical elements, modern amenities such as a dual-function Post Office/general store, a village hall, and tennis courts contribute to the village's charm. Today, Ickford is a magnet for those seeking the tranquility and simplicity of country life, making it an enchanting location for a permanent residence.
