The beautiful village of Quenington can be found on the banks of the gently flowing River Coln as it winds its way through unspoilt countryside from Bibury to Fairford.

Important historic buildings include a medieval large dovecote above a gatehouse, and St Swithin's Church of England parish church, built mainly in the late 11th century and (despite partial Victorian restoration) listed in the highest category of listed building, Grade I. The village has a village hall, a pub and a pleasant village green.

It has previously been suggested that the name Quenington could have meant "settlement on the Coln", the river which flows through the village, although the name 'Coln' is of unknown origin. Quenington is mentioned in the Domesday Book in relation to two mills at either end of the village, a water mill and a fulling mill, both now private residences.
