Sonning Lock

Highlight • Bridge

Sonning Lock is a lock and associated weir situated on the River Thames at the village of Sonning near Reading, Berkshire, England. The first lock was built by the Thames Navigation Commission in 1773 and it has been rebuilt three times since then.

Great cafe next to the lock house to stop and fill up on your walk.

Right on the river, not always easy to get bikes into the garden (if gates closed use the car park)

Sonning Bridge

Highlight • Historical Site

This grade II-listed bridge spans the River Thames above Shiplake Lock. Built from red bricks during the 18th century, it's a particularly picturesque bridge and has been much painted and photographed.

There's most likely been a bridge on the site since at least the 12th century and this iteration replaced a 16th-century wooden bridge.
