Swinford Toll Bridge is a privately owned toll bridge across the River Thames. It crosses the river just above Eynsham Lock, between the village of Eynsham on the west bank and Swinford on the east bank. It carries the B4044 road from Oxford to Eynsham, which was the A40 road until the Eynsham bypass was completed in 1936. The bridge opened in 1769.
