The parish includes two hamlets on the other side of the river: Hanging Langford and Little Langford (formerly a separate civil parish). To the west is the former settlement of Bathampton.
Steeple Langford has thatched cottages, and several lakes created by the flooding of worked-out gravel pits.[2]
