Abingdon Bridge is a stone bridge crossing the River Thames at Abingdon in Oxfordshire, dating from the medieval period with significant later modifications. The structure represents an important crossing point on a major river route and retains evidence of its original medieval construction beneath later Georgian and Victorian interventions. The bridge has been substantially rebuilt and widened over the centuries, reflecting changing traffic demands and engineering practices from the medieval period through to the nineteenth century. Its historical importance lies both in its role as a vital Thames crossing and in the archaeological evidence it preserves of evolving bridge construction techniques across several centuries.
