Wallingford Bridge is a medieval bridge crossing the River Thames at Wallingford in Berkshire, England. The structure dates from the 12th century, representing an important example of medieval bridge engineering and a crucial river crossing on what became a major trading route. The bridge comprises multiple arches of stone construction, which have been substantially rebuilt and repaired over successive centuries, particularly during the 17th and 18th centuries, though the medieval foundations remain integral to the structure. Its strategic location at Wallingford, a town of considerable historical importance, made the bridge essential for communication and commerce across the Thames throughout the medieval period and beyond.
