Just south of Oxford and situated on the banks of the River Thames, Abingdon is one of England's oldest continuously inhabited towns, with evidence of settlement stretching back to the Iron Age.
Abingdon's medieval Abbey was once an important centre of learning and influence, and the town retains a wealth of history and character today.
The Thames Path meanders through town, providing scenic walks, attractive riverside views and opportunities to stop at local pubs and cafés. Historic Abingdon Bridge adds to the town's character.
At the heart of Abingdon you'll find its bustling Market Place, historic County Hall, independent shops, cafés, pubs and restaurants, creating an appealing combination of modern amenities and traditional market-town architecture.
Throughout the year, Abingdon also hosts festivals, community events and activities centred around the river and town.
