New Bridge is a stone bridge crossing the River Thames near Moulsford in Berkshire, constructed in the late fourteenth century, likely between 1370 and 1390. The bridge is built of Cotswold stone and comprises a series of pointed arches characteristic of medieval bridge construction, featuring a substantial central span and smaller arches at either end. It represents an important example of late medieval river engineering and has maintained much of its original structural integrity despite centuries of use and weathering. The bridge served as a crucial crossing point for traffic between Berkshire and Oxfordshire and remains a significant monument of medieval infrastructure within the Thames valley landscape.
