Cockpole Green is a little village in Berkshire, to be found two and a half miles east of Henley-on-Thames, across the river in Oxfordshire. The A321 runs nearby but not to the village.

It is a place betwixt and between; Cockpole Green lies along a lane running between the A4130 Henley to Maidenhead road and the A4 from Reading, at the mouth of the corner formed by a great loop in the River Thames, which is therefore about a mile to the west and also the the north.

The village has been split between two parishes - Hurley and Wargrave – both as to church parishes and civil parishes. Both of the main parish churches are distant and St Paul's Mission Church in Knowl Hill a mile and a half away, serves as the nearest church.
