This property is located in Bourton, within the postal district SN 6, a rural area of the Vale of White Horse noted for its canal and stone-built villages.

Bourton, Vale of White Horse, lies within the postal district SN 6 and is a rural locality characterised by its historic canal that passed through the northern part of the parish. Bourton Wharf was built beside the main road between Swindon and Longcot, reflecting the area’s historical connection to waterway transport. The surrounding landscape is part of the Cotswolds, a region of South West and South East England that extends into several counties, including Gloucestershire and Oxfordshire, and parts of Wiltshire, Somerset, Worcestershire and Warwickshire. The area is defined by Jurassic limestone bedrock, producing a type of grassland habitat that is quarried for the golden‑coloured Cotswold stone. The predominantly rural landscape contains stone‑built villages, towns, stately homes and gardens featuring the local stone, giving Bourton a picturesque, historic character within a rolling hills setting.
