Nuneham Courtenay

Nuneham Courtenay is a village and civil parish about 5 miles southeast of Oxford. It occupies a pronounced section of the left bank of the River Thames.

The parish is bounded to the west by the River Thames and on other sides by field boundaries. The 2011 Census recorded the parish's population as 200. The parish is on a light escarpment running north-east to south-west. Its highest point is a tiny knoll 100 metres above sea level, about 500 metres of the village . Between these points is Windmill Hill where no evidence of a windmill survives. The minimum elevation is 52m to 53m along the Thames which follows the line of the central eminent land. Most of the Bluebell Wood nature reserve is on the eastern slopes, across Marsh Baldon's straight and touching boundary. The parish covers about 2 km north to the same south-west of the point shown and just over 1% of South Oxfordshire's 67.85 km². Its population was 0.15% of the district's total of 134,257. The Oxford Green Belt Way passes through the parish.
