Amongst the notable buildings in the village is a set of almshouses dating from 1613 and the vicarage that dates from 1830. The church is probably of Norman origin but it contains interesting work of most centuries since then. The south chapel is railed off as private property of the Roman Catholic Lord of the Manor.

The centrepiece of the village is Mapledurham House, one of the largest Elizabethan houses in Oxfordshire. Built for the Blount family in Elizabethan times, the house has an original 16th century ceiling, a great oak staircase and a private chapel as well as numerous paintings.

The mill dates from the 16th century and is a rare example of a working Thames watermill. It is now restored and visitors can buy the stoneground wholemeal flour produced there.
