Wikipedia has a page about Godstow Bridge
Godstow Bridge is a road bridge across the River Thames in England at Godstow near Oxford. The bridge is just upstream of Godstow Lock on the reach to King's Lock and carries a minor road between Wolvercote and Wytham.
The bridge is in two parts. The older part crosses the original course of the river and weir stream near The Trout Inn, a well-known public house. This stone bridge was in existence in 1692 and was probably the one held by the Royalists against Parliamentarians in 1645, during the English Civil War. It has two arches, one being pointed and the other rounded. The newer part was built across the new lock cut in 1792. This has two round arches of brick and was rebuilt in 1892. The North arch dates from medieval times. The Bridge is a Grade II Listed Building.
The importance of the bridge was reduced by the construction of the Oxford By-pass and the A34 Bridge a short distance upstream.

![Little Godstow Bridge & Weir, Wolvercote. Little Godstow Bridge is situated immediately to the south of [[[6938018]]] and carries the lane to Wolvercote over a branch of the River Thames (or Isis) with a weir built into its arches dropping the river level by about 4' (1.2m) I would estimate. A navigable arm of the Thames flows under a second bridge (Godstow Bridge) immediately south of this one. The bridge, which is mediæval in origin, but was reconstructed in 1892 is EH Grade II listed https://historicengland.org.uk/listing/the-list/list-entry/1116442 by Rob Farrow – 19 August 2021](https://s0.geograph.org.uk/geophotos/06/93/80/6938024_779be542_120x120.jpg)
