Today the village of Aveton Gifford has a bypass and is no longer a notorious traffic bottleneck. The village is built at the first crossing point of the River Avon, at the head of the Avon Estuary. Surrounded by beautiful countryside the village is now a charming, quiet village. It still has its village school and it now has its own village regatta held every summer.
The church of St. Andrew above the village. It was destroyed by bombing in WWII and had to be rebuilt. Nearby are Ashford, St. Annes Chapel, and Loddiswell to the north.
