Stanford in the Vale
Stanford in the Vale is a village and civil parish in the Vale of White Horse about south-east of Faringdon and north-west of Wantage.〔(Grid Reference Finder )〕 It was part of Berkshire until the 1974 boundary changes transferred its district to Oxfordshire. The 2011 Census recorded the parish's population 2,093.
==Geography==
Stanford is a village with a clustered centre just north of the nascent River Ock, which is a tributary of the River Thames and flows from west to east through the parish. The parish is about wide north – south but extends for more than east – west along the course of the Ock and its tributaries. One tributary, Stutfield Brook, forms the southeast boundary of the parish. Another, Frogmore Brook, forms part of the northern boundary. The western boundary follows the edges of present and former fields.
Stanford village is built on soil-clad Corallian Limestone, which in patches comes close to the surface through erosion. The village is on the A417 road that links Faringdon and Wantage. All outlying parts of the parish are used for farming, interspersed with woodland and other land-intensive industries, with the exception of Bow, a hamlet just north of the village and almost contiguous with the village's core.
