Gallowstree Common

England

Gallowstree Common is a small Chiltern Hills village in Oxfordshire, reached via the A4074 from Reading (8 miles north) or through country lanes from Henley-on-Thames. The settlement sits on elevated chalk downland between beech woods and open commons. With approximately 200 EV charging points in the wider area and scenic routes connecting neighbouring villages like Kidmore End and Sonning Common, it's popular for countryside drives. The village name recalls the historic gallows that once stood on the common.
