Old Stone Arch Bridge, Stone arch bridge in Bound Brook, United States.

The bridge spans Green Brook with three arches made of locally quarried rough-hewn masonry, connecting Bound Brook with Middlesex Borough in New Jersey.

Constructed in 1731, the bridge witnessed the Battle of Bound Brook in 1777 when British General Cornwallis led 4,000 troops against 500 American soldiers.

The structure carried the Great Road Up Raritan, established in 1681, which later became Old York Road connecting Philadelphia to New York City.

Since the 1870s, railroad embankment construction has buried the bridge up to its parapets, limiting access and visibility to this historical structure.

This bridge stands as the second-oldest remaining bridge in the United States and holds the distinction of being the oldest bridge in New Jersey.
