Longworth is a village and civil parish in the Vale of White Horse, England. Historically within the north-west projection of Berkshire, boundary changes transferred it to Oxfordshire in 1974. The village is between Faringdon, 7 miles (11 km) to the west, and Oxford, 9 miles (14 km) to the northeast. The 2021 Census recorded the parish's population as 543.[1]

The parish is bounded by the River Thames to the north, the A420 road to the south, and field boundaries to the east and west. The land slopes from the A420 road to the river, except at Harrowdown Hill near the northeast corner of the parish, which has a summit of 325 feet (99 m).
