The Crowley's Ridge State Park Bridge is a historic masonry stone arch bridge in Crowley's Ridge State Park, near Walcott, Arkansas. The bridge carries the main access road to the park across a drainage ditch. It is a rusticated stone structure, about 40 feet (12 m) long, that was built c. 1935 by crews of the Civilian Conservation Corps (CCC) that were developing the park. It is one of several CCC-built structures still standing in the park, and is a well-built example of the rustic architecture popularized by the CCC.[2]
The bridge was listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 1992.[1]
