Marsh Head Horsebridge

Marsh Head Horsebridge is situated near Marsh Lock, Henley, Oxfordshire. It is one of two footbridges of similar construction in this location. The bridges carry a public right of way from Henley past Marsh Lock and are part of the Thames Path National Trail.

Keeping the public safe is one of our highest priorities and therefore following a structural inspection, we regrettably closed Marsh Head Horsebridge in May 2022 due to numerous structural and safety concerns.

The refurbishment of this bridge is being treated as a priority as we know how important it is to both local people and visitors using the Thames Path.

An outline design for the bridge refurbishment or replacement is planned for this financial year. This design will be used to determine the next phase of design, construction as well as the overall funding strategy. Unfortunately, there are no confirmed dates for the construction work yet, but more information will be shared on this page as it becomes available.

We are grateful to all our customers and stakeholders for their ongoing patience.
