Description

Shillingford Bridge is a bridge built between 1826 and 1827, constructed from limestone ashlar and some red brick. The central section features three graduated segmental arches with projecting keyblocks, which are separated by shallow pilaster strips that rise from cutwaters. Above this, there is a balustraded parapet that stands on a projecting band, which curves around the pilasters. The flanking sections have plain solid parapets; to the south, the parapet curves sharply outward to square piers, while to the north, it forms a long causeway with nine low plain arches arranged in groups of one, three, and five. The west face of the flanking sections is primarily made of brick. The bridge spans the River Thames.

Local climate

Shillingford Bridge sits in a drier-than-average part of the UK, with an average of 720 mm of rain a year. This makes it drier than 82% of listed buildings in the UK. Its exposure to wind-driven rain is lower than that of 75% of listed buildings.

It experiences an average of 37 freeze-thaw cycles a year, more than 65% of listed buildings. Of these, 16 follow at least 1 mm of rain in the preceding 48 hours. Average temperatures at this location have risen by 0.3°C per decade since 1991.

Averages for 1991–2020; temperature trend 1991–2025. Figures describe the wider area (a grid cell of roughly 10 km), not the individual site. Contains modified Copernicus Climate Change Service information 2026.
