Moulsford Railway Bridge, Railway bridge in South Oxfordshire, England
Moulsford Railway Bridge crosses the River Thames with four semi-elliptical arches built from red brick and pale stone corners. The structure carries multiple train tracks between Goring & Streatley and Cholsey stations.
Built between 1838 and 1840 following Isambard Kingdom Brunel's design, it formed part of the Great Western Railway's main line from London to Wales. A second parallel structure was added in the 1890s to handle growing train traffic.
The Grade II* listed structure represents the engineering achievements of Victorian railway construction and remains central to British transportation infrastructure.
The bridge is accessible from either Goring & Streatley or Cholsey stations, with walking paths along the river providing views of the structure. Daytime visits offer the best light to see the brickwork details and observe trains passing regularly.
The structure holds Grade II* listed status, Britain's highest recognition for historic engineering works, reflecting its importance beyond typical railway infrastructure. This distinction marks it as a significant example of Victorian railway engineering still in active service today.
