Woodward Road Stone Arch Bridge

The Woodward Road Stone Arch Bridge spans a tributary of Cornwallsville Creek with a single limestone arch measuring eight feet wide and seven feet in span.

Built in 1887 by Jeremiah Cunningham, this bridge represents a significant period of infrastructure development in Greene County during the late nineteenth century.

The bridge demonstrates the technical expertise of nineteenth-century American stonemasons through its dry-laid construction technique, where stones fit together without mortar.

Located at coordinates 42°22'17"N 74°5'46"W, the bridge covers an area of 0.9 acres and remains an active part of the local transportation network.

The structure earned recognition on the National Register of Historic Places in 2009 for its preservation of late nineteenth-century stone arch bridge engineering methods.
