    This grade II-listed bridge spans the River Thames above Shiplake Lock. Built from red bricks during the 18th century, it's a particularly picturesque bridge and has been much painted and photographed.

    There's most likely been a bridge on the site since at least the 12th century and this iteration replaced a 16th-century wooden bridge.

      Sonning Bridge is a road bridge across the River Thames at Sonning, Berkshire. It links Sonning with Sonning Eye (Oxfordshire) and crosses the Thames on the reach above Shiplake Lock, just short of Sonning Lock. It is a brick arch bridge completed in 1775, to replace an earlier wooden bridge. The bridge has been the subject of many paintings and prints by artists and is a Grade II listed building.

        The walk along the Thames was a treat, and the return around the back of Sonning was also welcome on a hot Sunday when the centre of Sonning was gridlocked with traffic. An easy walk, not busy.
