}}Tadpole Bridge is a road bridge across the River Thames in Oxfordshire, England, carrying a road between Bampton to the north and Buckland to the south. It crosses the Thames on the reach above Shifford Lock. It is a Grade II listed building.[1]

The bridge dates from the late 18th century, the earliest reference to it being in 1784. It is built of stone, and consists of one large arch.[2]

There is a public house near Tadpole Bridge called The Trout. Thacker noted that at one time the legend over the door read "The Trout, kept by A. Herring".[2] The Trout is now a hotel and gastropub.[3]

The Thames Path crosses Tadpole Bridge.
