The '''Summerleaze Footbridge''' is a footbridge across the [[River Thames]] in linking [[Dorney]] in [[Buckinghamshire]] on the north bank with [[Bray, Berkshire|Bray]] in [[Berkshire]] on the south.<br />
<br />
The bridge is south of [[Dorney Reach]] Village, between [[Queen's Eyot]] and [[Monkey Island, Bray|Monkey Island]], about two miles downstream of [[Maidenhead Bridge]], on the reach above [[Boveney Lock]].<br />
<br />
The footbridge was built as a gravel conveyor belt, taking gravel from the construction of [[Dorney Lake]], a nearby purpose-built rowing lake belonging to [[Eton College]], and takes its name "Summerleaze" from the firm who built it in 1996.<br />
