Maidensgrove is a hamlet above the Stonor valley in the Chiltern Hills, adjacent to Russell's Water common. It is about 5 miles (8.0 km) northwest of Henley-on-Thames in South Oxfordshire, England. There is a 16th-century public house called The Five Horseshoes at nearby Upper Maidensgrove.[1] The Chiltern Way and Oxfordshire Way long-distance paths pass close by, with several other walks through the village, and the Warburg Nature Reserve is to the south.[2][3]
