Tadpole Bridge, Road bridge across River Thames in Buckland, England
The single-span stone bridge spans the River Thames, connecting the northern area of Bampton to the southern region of Buckland in Oxfordshire.
Built in 1784, the Grade II listed bridge represents an example of late 18th-century engineering and transportation infrastructure in the Thames Valley.
The Thames Path, traversing through Tadpole Bridge, forms part of a national walking route that allows people to experience England's river heritage.
The bridge maintains a height of 4.52 meters and carries an 18-tonne weight restriction, serving as a vital crossing point for local traffic.
A bronze Roman bracelet discovered near the bridge indicates the location's significance as a crossing point dating back to ancient times.
