The river Thames marks the boundary between Oxfordshire to the North and West Berkshire to the South a few miles either side of Pangbourne and is here crossed by the Whitchurch Bridge, connecting Pangbourne with Whitchurch-on-Thames.

Historical records of this being a strategic crossing point go as far back as 844AD.

Both sides of the river are lined with beautiful and exclusive houses, best observed from the boats cruising the river.

Whitchurch Bridge carries the road between the villages of Pangbourne, Berkshire, and Whitchurch-on-Thames, Oxfordshire.

The bridge is a Grade II listed building and is one of two remaining private toll bridges across the River Thames - there is no charge for pedestrians, cyclists or motorcycles.

There has been a bridge on the site since 1792. The structure was renewed in 1852, 1902 and most recently in 2014. The original charges were a halfpenny each for pedestrians, sheep, boars and pigs, and two pence for each and every wheel of a carriage.
