Anyone in Wargrave or in Shiplake would have to undertake a journey or several miles to visit the other community by road, even though the two are separated only by a short distance and the River Thames.

However, both villages are served by the railway, a small single track branch line between Twyford, on the London Paddington main line, and Henley. The stations are less than a mile apart, the Wargrave one just beyond the end of the bridge on the opposite bank.
