Friary Island is an island in the River Thames in England on the reach above Bell Weir Lock, on the approach to Old Windsor Lock at Wraysbury, Berkshire.[1] It is just across the river from Old Windsor, where there was a friary from which it took its name.
The island is inhabited, with about 40 houses, and is accessible via a road bridge.
