As best as I can tell the last time the Thames froze over was in 1814. The construction of a new London Bridge in 1825 may have helped stop it from freezing as the new one had fewer pillers than the old, allowing the river to flow more freely.

It hasn't frozen for many years so there are no accurate records.The only reliable records I can access show that the temperature in 1709 dropped to -15° C, (-5°F), and stayed that low for 11 days.Non-tidal parts of the Thames froze in 1963. That is the last time any part of the Thames froze.
