Eynsham Lock is a lock on the River Thames in England. It is on the southern bank near Swinford Oxfordshire. The large village of Eynsham is a little distance away on the northern bank.

The lock was one of the last pound locks built on the Thames being built by the Thames Conservancy in 1928.

The weir is on the other side of the island on the original course of the river.
