Cropredy Bridge, Stone bridge in Cropredy, Oxfordshire, England.

The three-span bridge across the River Cherwell measures 12 feet per span and features a reinforced concrete deck covered with Hornton stone.

The Battle of Cropredy Bridge on June 29, 1644, resulted in a Royalist victory over Parliamentarian forces during the English Civil War.

The bridge serves as a central meeting point for local residents who gather near its stone parapets during community celebrations and events.

The structure connects the village of Cropredy with Williamscot hamlet, providing essential access for pedestrians and vehicles across the River Cherwell.

The current 1937 construction incorporated original materials from previous structures, including a preserved date-stone from an ancient cutwater.

Official opening: 1937
