context_page_description: Appleford-on-Thames is a village and civil parish on the south bank of the River Thames about 2 miles north of Didcot, Oxfordshire. It was part of Berkshire until the 1974 local government boundary changes. The 2011 Census recorded the parish's population as 350.
context_section_description: In 1844 the Great Western Railway opened an extension from Didcot to Oxford, passing through Appleford parish and crossing the River Thames just north of the village. The new line included a station at Appleford, but the station was closed after just five years. In 1933 the GWR opened a new halt on the site, which continues in service today as Appleford railway station.
  Appleford had a bus service until 2016 when Oxfordshire County Council withdrew its subsidy. It was route 46, which ran once in each direction on a Monday morning between Clifton Hampden Post Office and Abingdon War Memorial.
