'Donnington Bridge' is a modern road bridge (completed in 1962) over the River Thames, in the south of the city of Oxford, England. At this point the river is called the Isis.
There is much rowing on the river by students of Oxford University, and members of the City of Oxford Rowing Club, and residents using the Riverside Centre between here and Folly Bridge further upstream. The start of Eights Week and Torpids is just south of Donnington Bridge, and the bridge is a good place to view the races because of its high vantage point.
